I think if reviewed, a grade of 9(OC) probably would be the strongest bet.....I absolutely think it would get a 6.5 if asked for a straight grade as well....

Then get it reholdered as a PSA 6.5! I think everyone can agree that a non-qualifier card is always more desirable, even with a lower grade. Plus an 8 OC only counts as a PSA 5 points-wise in the registry, so you’d want that extra OOMPH for the registry buyers.
