Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Doctor Doom [Green Precious Metal Gems] #183 sells for $7,975 against $2,100 raw: a $5,875 spread, 3.8× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($7,250) 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.
