Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Stephen Curry [Finals] #10 sells for $116 against $30.64 raw: a $85.36 spread, 3.8× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($105) 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.
