A PSA 10 currently sells for about $260.19, raw the card sits at $59.08 — 4.4× as much. Of 19.711 copies already graded, 61 % received a 10 and 31 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $192.47 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 738 auctions the median was $88.91, across 1524 fixed-price sales $97.55. Fixed price therefore fetched about 10 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $68.44 and $98.06, with a median of $80.69. 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 $58.42. Offers well below $35.05 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 $65.55 (2366), French $61.36 (130), German $54.51 (243). English fetches about 55 % 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.
