Dang, that is so sweet! Congrats on a great hit!

Be sure to take a loupe and spend some time looking at it (especially corners and edges), as it cannot be assumed that every card out of a pack will be a PSA 10. I think that's far from the case. If the grade will be a difference maker, then a hard look with a critical eye will help (for instance, you'd be happy with PSA 9 or PSA 10, but PSA 8 wouldn't be worth it).

The Blowout card forum is another resource you may want to explore, both in terms of gauging if it's worth to grade and also for a possible sale on their B/S/T section (if you don't have an account there, just read up on their rules as it is run a bit differently than Net54). And if you go the eBay route, it may be worth a few minutes to look at COMC's auction fee structure to see if it might help you make the most of a sale there.

No matter, what a thrill to pull such a great card from a pack! Congrats!
