A PSA 10 currently sells for about $54.63, raw the card sits at $2.56 — 21,3× as much. Of 1.006 copies already graded, 67 % received a 10 and 26 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $43.98 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 $2.24, across 83 fixed-price sales $2.92. Fixed price therefore fetched about 30 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $1.96 and $3.12, with a median of $2.36. 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 $1.27. Offers well below $0.76 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 $2.24 (15), German $2.23 (27), English $2.09 (206). 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.
