Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Ricky Williams #64 sell for $10.00, only $7.65 above the $2.35 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($2.29) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
