Is Mon Mothma worth grading?

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Mon Mothma sells for $36.00 against $2.50 raw: a $33.50 spread, 14× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($33.00) 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.
