A PSA 10 currently sells for about $117.33, raw the card sits at $8.80 — 13,3× as much. Of 436 copies already graded, 38 % received a 10 and 50 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $54.22 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 38 auctions the median was $5.86, across 194 fixed-price sales $7.02. Fixed price therefore fetched about 20 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $6.02 and $8.38, with a median of $7.32. 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 $5.13. Offers well below $3.08 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 $11.11 (13), English $8.69 (294), German $7.96 (20). Italian fetches about 40 % 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.
