A PSA 10 currently sells for about $69.32, raw the card sits at $23.63 — 2.9× as much. Of 3.180 copies already graded, 63 % received a 10 and 25 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $54.39 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 145 auctions the median was $24.71, across 386 fixed-price sales $31.35. Fixed price therefore fetched about 27 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $23.60 and $34.29, with a median of $27.60. 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 $19.66. Offers well below $11.80 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: French $41.39 (14), English $23.59 (591), German $20.31 (64). French fetches about 104 % 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.
