Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Emblema Oath MP24-EN146 sells for $123 against $16.45 raw: a $106 spread, 7.5× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($79.07) 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.
