Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Hart Foundation #63 sells for $53.00 against $0.92 raw: a $52.08 spread, 58× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($44.00) 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.
