Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A Grade 9.5 Jalen Hurts [1st Down] #214 sells for $106 against $10.25 raw: a $95.75 spread, 10× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($96.47) 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.
