A PSA 10 currently sells for about $115.68, raw the card sits at $20.54 — 5,6× as much. Of 8.419 copies already graded, 61 % received a 10 and 33 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $82.79 on average, before fees and shipping. Rule of thumb: submit when the value at a realistic grade is at least double the raw value — which is the case here. Centering decides it: an off-centre card will not get a 10. The grade distribution comes from the PSA Population Report; people pre-sort before submitting, so your own hit rate may differ.

Across 86 auctions the median was $22.70, across 420 fixed-price sales $25.19. Fixed price therefore fetched about 11 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $19.32 and $26.26, with a median of $21.35. Selling fast lands you nearer the lower end; with patience, good photos and a complete title the upper end is achievable.

The cheapest genuine sales were around $16.95. Offers well below $10.17 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

From real sales: French $25.56 (18), German $24.30 (27), Italian $23.97 (28). French fetches about 30 % more.

lastsold uses only real sales — eBay plus auction houses like Goldin & Fanatics — recent sales count more (recency weighting), outliers and fakes are removed. It's not an estimate but actual sold prices, separated by condition, language and grading.
