Raw: $10 - $20 | Graded (9.8): $60 - $85
Recent Sales
Recent raw copies in similar high-grade condition have sold for $12 - $18 on eBay. CGC 9.8 specimens currently trend around $75.
Grading Recommendation
Only worth grading if it is a guaranteed 9.8 candidate, as the cost of grading often exceeds the market value of a 9.4 or 9.6 for this specific issue. A clean and press could resolve the minor spine tensions.
