Is Doctor Doom [Hologram] #H-4 worth grading?

Marvel · Marvel 1991 Universe · full price guide →

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Doctor Doom [Hologram] #H-4 sells for $194 against $11.27 raw: a $183 spread, 17× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($176) 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.

Raw (NM): $11.27
