Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Fluoride FLOYD #200a sells for $64.00 against $2.02 raw: a $61.98 spread, 32× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($53.00) 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.
