Strong grading candidate — 250× premium in CGC 9
A CGC 9 Gogoat sells for $50.00 against $0.20 raw: a $49.80 spread, 250× the ungraded price. A PSA 9 ($2.00) only about breaks even after fees, so the case rests on gemming. Centering is the usual reason a clean copy misses the 10 — measure it before you submit.
