A PSA 10 currently sells for about $223.92, raw the card sits at $5.03 — 44.5× as much. Of 1.107 copies already graded, 32 % received a 10 and 48 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $90.37 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 134 auctions the median was $4.16, across 519 fixed-price sales $3.99. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $3.26 and $4.84, with a median of $3.93. 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 $2.69. Offers well below $1.61 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 $6.13 (19), English $4.20 (745), German $3.94 (37). French fetches about 56 % more.

Last Sold 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.
