Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Cody Hodgson [Autograph] #224 sells for $76.00 against $6.28 raw: a $69.72 spread, 12× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($63.52) 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.
