A PSA 10 currently sells for about $53.99, raw the card sits at $7.96 — 6.8× as much. Of 3.296 copies already graded, 66 % received a 10 and 26 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $43.42 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 465 auctions the median was $9.46, across 1010 fixed-price sales $11.75. Fixed price therefore fetched about 24 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $9.60 and $13.49, with a median of $11.54. 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 $7.28. Offers well below $4.37 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: Italian $12.21 (31), French $10.70 (44), English $10.02 (1529). Italian fetches about 74 % more.

Last Sold 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.
