Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Right Leg of the Forbidden One sells for $850 against $50.00 raw: a $800 spread, 17× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($88.00) 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.
