There is definitely a decent price differential, but I'm not looking to sell the card (not that it would be a great windfall or anything), so it shall remain entombed. A couple of years ago I bought a PSA 7 ST 1968 Mantle, where the stain was a little gum residue near his face, so I cracked it out and wiped away the gunk in time for Bobby's group sub. It came back a straight 7, so that one was well worth it in terms of amping up the value. Here's a before and after...
