A PSA 10 currently sells for about $590.59, raw the card sits at $7.03 — 84,0× as much. Mathematically, submitting returns $590.59 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.

Across 32 auctions the median was $13.71, across 98 fixed-price sales $12.60. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $6.34 and $17.50, with a median of $10.57. 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 $4.85. Offers well below $2.91 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

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.
