Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Matthijs de Ligt #67 sells for $76.00 against $20.50 raw: a $55.50 spread, 3.7× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($69.00) 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.
