Grading rarely pays for this card
CGC 10 copies of Firewall Dragon [Misprint] TN23-EN008 sell for $32.00, only $11.40 above the $20.60 raw price — less than an economy-tier grading fee. A PSA 9 ($12.50) sells for less than raw, so anything short of a 10 loses money. Keep it raw unless you are grading for the slab itself.
