Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Naomi Girma [Orange] #199 sells for $62.00 against $5.49 raw: a $56.51 spread, 11× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($56.38) 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.
