Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Nicolas Hague [Autograph] #211 sells for $49.00 against $9.77 raw: a $39.23 spread, 5.0× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($44.99) clears the raw price after an economy-tier ~$25 fee, so a near-miss still comes out ahead. Centering is the usual reason a clean copy misses the 10 — measure it before you submit.
