A PSA 10 currently sells for about $104.47, raw the card sits at $9.83 — 10,6× as much. Of 774 copies already graded, 31 % received a 10 and 46 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $50.59 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 35 auctions the median was $6.40, across 158 fixed-price sales $10.01. Fixed price therefore fetched about 56 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $7.62 and $11.43, with a median of $9.35. 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 $5.60. Offers well below $3.36 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 $9.72 (225), German $9.20 (10). 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.
