A PSA 10 currently sells for about $40.59, raw the card sits at $2.96 — 13.7× as much. Of 837 copies already graded, 73 % received a 10 and 22 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $34.02 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 252 auctions the median was $2.80, across 582 fixed-price sales $4.32. Fixed price therefore fetched about 54 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $2.90 and $4.91, with a median of $3.87. 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 $2.13. Offers well below $1.28 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 $5.56 (20), German $3.92 (96), English $3.18 (943). French fetches about 75 % 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.
