A PSA 10 currently sells for about $2,605, raw the card sits at $57.29 — 45,5× as much. Of 681 copies already graded, 8 % received a 10 and 27 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $628.26 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 $37.77, across 90 fixed-price sales $44.05. Fixed price therefore fetched about 17 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $23.49 and $49.09, with a median of $35.33. 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 $16.92. Offers well below $10.15 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.
