A PSA 10 currently sells for about $251.51, raw the card sits at $66.00 — 3,8× as much. Of 6.288 copies already graded, 52 % received a 10 and 37 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $167.52 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 88 auctions the median was $53.26, across 243 fixed-price sales $73.05. Fixed price therefore fetched about 37 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $52.86 and $72.96, with a median of $63.84. 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 $44.63. Offers well below $26.78 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: English $60.72 (325), German $45.73 (14). English fetches about 33 % 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.
