A PSA 10 currently sells for about $109.73, raw the card sits at $2.98 — 36.9× as much. Of 652 copies already graded, 43 % received a 10 and 47 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $59.76 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 103 auctions the median was $2.43, across 480 fixed-price sales $3.39. Fixed price therefore fetched about 40 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $2.47 and $3.99, with a median of $3.12. 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 $1.94. Offers well below $1.17 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: German $4.21 (11), Italian $3.89 (24), English $3.57 (602). German fetches about 18 % 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.
