Is it worth grading? Here, the raw card is already expensive and the gem-mint multiple is comparatively restrained. Grading can still protect and authenticate a pristine copy, but the financial case depends on avoiding merely near-mint submissions. Check foil scratches, border balance, and back-corner wear carefully.
