Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Jason Kelce [Gold] #FPA-JK sells for $239,430 against $189 raw: a $239,241 spread, 1267× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($124,987) 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.
