Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Yellow Baboon, Archer of the Forest [1st Edition] SOVR-EN084 sell for $23.00, only $15.75 above the $7.25 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($20.50) only about breaks even after fees, so the case rests on gemming. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
