Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Toasted TOM #115c sells for $109 against $70.00 raw: a $39.00 spread, 1.6× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($99.00) 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.
