Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Batty BARNEY [Green] #180b sell for $20.00, only $0.00 above the $44.27 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($18.25) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
