Is Deadpool #27 worth grading?

Marvel · Marvel 2013 Fleer Retro Metal · full price guide →

Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw

A Grade 9.5 Deadpool #27 sells for $275 against $45.48 raw: a $230 spread, 6.0× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($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.

Raw (NM): $45.48
Grade 9.5: $275
PSA 9: $250
Gem premium: 6.0×
