Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 White Queen #95 sells for $293 against $2.12 raw: a $290 spread, 138× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($33.75) 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.
