🧬 Should I slab it?
Worth gradingAbout a 4% 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 ~$113 before the $49 PSA fee (fee only - excludes shipping & insurance), ~$64 after, vs a raw copy around $25 (est.). Grading pencils out here, especially if you hit the $643 ten.
Probability-weighted across grades using PSA population as a proxy for this set’s cut & print quality, minus the grading fee. A guide, not a guarantee — centering and eye-appeal on your specific copy decide the grade.
