A PSA 10 currently sells for about $31,318, raw the card sits at $390.66 — 80,2× as much. Of 982 copies already graded, 2 % received a 10 and 20 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $3,918 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 32 auctions the median was $448.58, across 95 fixed-price sales $351.79. Auctions therefore fetched about 28 % more — worth it mainly for sought-after cards with several bidders.

Half of all sales fell between $190.21 and $386.15, with a median of $257.75. 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 $151.98. Offers well below $91.19 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

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.
