Grading rarely pays for this card

Grade 9.5 copies of Keyshawn Johnson #86 sell for $11.99, only $11.13 above the $0.86 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($3.00) only about breaks even after fees, so the case rests on gemming. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
