Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Roy Halladay #11 sells for $34.00 against $2.17 raw: a $31.83 spread, 16× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($31.00) 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.
