What sets the price of Swampert ex #98

Swampert ex #98 is a Rare Holo EX Pokémon card from EX Crystal Guardians, the EX era (2006). It ranks as number 5 by price out of 100 cards in the set, so it is one of the cards collectors chase when opening packs. A PSA 10 sells for about 15x the raw price, so centering and surface condition decide most of what a copy is worth. Its price has held almost flat over the last 30 days ($217.95 to $217.95). The illustration is by Ryo Ueda.

Is it worth grading? Given the already strong raw range and the very large premium attached to a PSA 10, grading is sensible for exceptionally clean copies. Foil scratches, edge whitening and small surface dents are the main obstacles to a top result.
