A PSA 10 currently sells for about $289.67, raw the card sits at $111.90 — 2,6× as much. Of 31.185 copies already graded, 54 % received a 10 and 36 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $216.79 on average, before fees and shipping. So submitting only pays off if the card truly hits a 10 — at any lower grade little remains after fees. The grade distribution comes from the PSA Population Report; people pre-sort before submitting, so your own hit rate may differ.

Across 180 auctions the median was $120.58, across 547 fixed-price sales $128.20. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $99.94 and $132.57, with a median of $114.82. 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 $89.51. Offers well below $53.70 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 $134.70 (33), English $123.19 (683), French $120.04 (20). German fetches about 32 % 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.
