I was given a bunch of cards. My understanding is that Pro Set didn't have licensing to print this card, so the run was stopped between 9,000 and 12,000 cards. I have 716 of this card and don't think they've ever seen sunlight. I can't imagine them grading out as 10's except for the ones that aren't perfectly centered. It would cost a small fortune to get these graded. What should I do?

Sorry. The cards are 1989 Pro Set #47 William Perry
All cards SHOULD grade out as 10's except the ones not centered.
Looking at completed eBay auctions, which is something you could review, I can see that raw copies sell for $20 - $30 and a PSA 9 sold in May for about $50 with shipping included in the price. I can't find any PSA 10 sales, but I'd guess those would be $150 - $250, but that is a complete guess.
If you sent a card in for grading and got a 10 that would be worth the cost of grading, but getting a PSA 9 would likely make you break even or only make a few bucks per card.
Thank you very much! Appreciate you. Would I be smart to get one card graded, try to sell it (hopefully a 10) and see how it goes? If 9,000 to 12,000 were printed (card was pulled because of licensing issues) I have a pretty significant part of that printing having 716 of them.
This one sold recently for $132 with buyer's premium.

Welcome to the boards.
If you submitted the best 100, you're probably NOT going to get many 10's.
Those cards have a dark border and ANY microscopic white showing ANYWHERE on the corners or edges will drop them to an 8.
I hope I am wrong. Good luck!
Thank you so much for your help. I always had cards as a kid (1969 mostly). Never had a card graded or sold, so this end of it is all new to me. Appreciate the assistance.
If you are going to send any of these for grading, purchase a magnifying glass or jewelers loupe and look at the corners, then edges.
If you see any white, do not submit.
Next, check centering, side to side is easy on this card, look at how 10's are top to bottom to reference, then look for print "dots" and for surface issues. Lastly, look at the back of the card for all the same things.
Don't send in anything you think "might" get a 10, they usually don't miss anything anymore. As it was stated earlier, this card is only worth grading if it gets a 10. You might want to send in your best 10 and see how it goes.
Good luck.
To op How did you obtain such a large amount of this card?
