Is Isaiah Pead #199 worth grading?

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Isaiah Pead #199 sells for $247 against $0.25 raw: a $247 spread, 988× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($225) 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): $0.25
Grade 9.5: $247
PSA 9: $225
