Should I grade this?

Grading with PSA pays if your copy has better than a 64% chance of a 10.

38% of the 161 copies PSA has graded got a 10. People mostly send their cleanest copies, so a typical raw copy's odds are lower.

Raw (NM): $1.14; TCGplayer
PSA 10: $104.05; 8 sales
PSA 9: $52.00; 11 sales
If it misses: $40.58; below 10, by PSA's grades

PSA grading + shipping per card$Valuable cards need a pricier service level.
