A PSA 10 currently sells for about $51.72, raw the card sits at $7.73 — 6.7× as much. Of 3.679 copies already graded, 69 % received a 10 and 24 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $41.72 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 268 auctions the median was $7.90, across 843 fixed-price sales $11.14. Fixed price therefore fetched about 41 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $7.96 and $12.97, with a median of $10.32. 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 $5.86. Offers well below $3.52 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 $10.07 (11), English $9.60 (1267), French $9.55 (24). Italian fetches about 49 % 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.
