Hi - I'm new to the boards...first post. I'd like to get some advice. I have a 1965 Rose that I recently submitted to PSA and it came back a 9 (pop 36). My Rose rookie is a 1963 Rose PSA 7 but I'd like to upgrade to an 8. I'm thinking of selling the 65 rose and using those funds to upgrade my rookie to the 8. Would you do this? Which do you think would be best to hold on to? thanks.

Now...as far as the '65 vs. the '63...I'd see if you could make a trade. If you're lucky, you might even be able to also get a PSA 8 '65. That way, you'd have both of 'em in PSA 8.
Edited to add: Maybe a better trade would be this: Your 1963 PSA 7 and 1965 PSA 9 for the 1963, '64 and '65 in PSA 8 (if you need the '64)
SMR's are as follows:
1963 PSA 7 - $800 : PSA 8 $1,750
1964 PSA 8 - $475
1965 PSA 8 - $500 : PSA 9 $2,000
Your two cards SMR $2,800
Cards getting SMR $2,725

I would sell the 7 and buy an 8, on the strength of my "paper profits."

OR.........
I would keep the existing cards.

I might try to get the 7 bumped by cracking it out. (Depends what it looks like, obviously.)

Welcome to the boards...and the above sounds like a GREAT idea.

That '65 PSA 9 is a keeper! ... (only 36 or 2% made the grade out of 1620 subbed!)
A '63 PSA 8 is much easier to come by ... (282 or 26% made the grade out of 1079 subbed!)
JMHO,

welcome to the boards
some great advise from passionate collectors here ...
And yes, I think you'd come to regret getting rid of the '65. That's gotta be a beauty!!! The rookie is obviously nice to have, but it's just 1/4 of a "bubble head" card. Sorry if that's a horrible way to describe that card, haha.

I would not crack it out, it may come back lower in grade or EOT.
As for the 65 in 9 I'm not sure what VCP is on that card but with 36 of them out there I'd venture to say that it is
worth between 400.00 and 600.00 Just a guess since I have not been into the 65 set for a few years now.
Also, all the big guns have that card in 9 so you might not be able to cash in that way.
Good luck though in whatever you choose to do.

Ouch, man. The '63 is my favorite card. I particularly enjoy Pete's neckless head. The colors are pretty awesome too. The wacky graphics and colors combine make this a one-of-a-kind card. But, hey, that's me. To each his own.
Hi, Welcome
Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze! Keep the 65
