A PSA 10 currently sells for about $1,109, raw the card sits at $34.29 — 32,3× as much. Of 2.903 copies already graded, 14 % received a 10 and 40 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $295.09 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 44 auctions the median was $35.92, across 42 fixed-price sales $32.97. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $14.87 and $34.27, with a median of $22.05. 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 $8.77. Offers well below $5.26 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 $36.72 (12), English $25.69 (49). French fetches about 43 % 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.
