A PSA 10 currently sells for about $3,278, raw the card sits at $195.74 — 16,7× as much. Of 860 copies already graded, 12 % received a 10 and 29 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $917.03 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 60 auctions the median was $104.77, across 134 fixed-price sales $115.71. Fixed price therefore fetched about 10 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $44.17 and $115.71, with a median of $68.00. 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 $31.32. Offers well below $18.79 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 $66.89 (126), German $59.28 (17). English fetches about 13 % 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.
