A PSA 10 currently sells for about $485.93, raw the card sits at $19.68 — 24,7× as much. Of 3.127 copies already graded, 23 % received a 10 and 35 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $204.68 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 26 auctions the median was $22.45, across 22 fixed-price sales $21.54. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $14.67 and $25.26, with a median of $20.19. 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 $8.44. Offers well below $5.06 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 $24.31 (18), English $21.60 (30). French fetches about 13 % 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.
