Grading rarely pays for this card
Grade 9.5 copies of Frederik Vesti [Autograph] #FT-FV sell for $88.00, only $0.00 above the $92.26 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($79.99) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
