A PSA 10 currently sells for about $83.15, raw the card sits at $13.29 — 6,3× as much. Of 824 copies already graded, 71 % received a 10 and 21 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $65.46 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 327 auctions the median was $12.77, across 817 fixed-price sales $15.79. 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 $11.99 and $18.11, with a median of $14.96. 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 $9.18. Offers well below $5.51 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: English $13.31 (1265), French $12.89 (39), Italian $6.68 (42). English fetches about 106 % 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.
