Subject page →🧬 Should I slab it?
SLAB ITAbout a 5% gem (PSA 10) rate on this card's own PSA pop - graded pop is self-selected (best copies get submitted), so a random raw likely grades lower. Expected value ~$108 before the $80 PSA fee (fee only - excludes shipping & insurance), ~$28 after, vs a raw copy around $12 from 105 raw sales. Grading pencils out here, especially if you hit the $966 ten.
Probability-weighted across grades using PSA population (this card) as a proxy for cut & print quality, minus the grading fee. A guide, not a guarantee — centering and eye-appeal on your specific copy decide the grade.
