A PSA 10 currently sells for about $40.88, raw the card sits at $3.88 — 10,5× as much. Of 269 copies already graded, 75 % received a 10 and 17 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $40.88 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 159 auctions the median was $2.91, across 307 fixed-price sales $5.04. Fixed price therefore fetched about 73 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $3.15 and $5.40, with a median of $4.18. 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 $2.24. Offers well below $1.35 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 $5.60 (20), German $3.37 (90), English $3.17 (620). French fetches about 77 % 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.
