Worth grading — even a PSA 9 beats raw
A PSA 10 Noah Schultz [Optic Signature] #200 sells for $68.43 against $10.00 raw: a $58.43 spread, 6.8× the ungraded price. Even a PSA 9 ($60.00) 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.
