A PSA 10 currently sells for about $372.10, raw the card sits at $17.75 — 21,0× as much. Of 7.195 copies already graded, 25 % received a 10 and 49 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $123.53 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 100 auctions the median was $17.23, across 539 fixed-price sales $17.70. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $14.54 and $19.62, with a median of $16.89. 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 $12.17. Offers well below $7.30 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 $17.42 (32), English $16.65 (684), German $12.88 (99). French fetches about 35 % 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.
