Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Nils Hoglander [Acetate] #207 sells for $81.00 against $39.31 raw: a $41.69 spread, 2.1× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($73.22) 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.
