A PSA 10 currently sells for about $190.73, raw the card sits at $69.86 — 2.7× as much. Of 7.374 copies already graded, 65 % received a 10 and 30 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $153.15 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 187 auctions the median was $90.49, across 401 fixed-price sales $81.27. Auctions therefore fetched about 11 % more — worth it mainly for sought-after cards with several bidders.

Half of all sales fell between $61.23 and $78.43, with a median of $68.63. 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 $54.85. Offers well below $32.91 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 $75.17 (12), German $74.52 (24), English $69.90 (340). The difference is small — language barely matters here.

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.
