A PSA 10 currently sells for about $55.51, raw the card sits at $18.33 — 3,0× as much. Of 1.023 copies already graded, 6 % received a 10 and 15 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $100.43 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 37 auctions the median was $2.95, across 92 fixed-price sales $5.70. Fixed price therefore fetched about 93 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $3.29 and $8.97, with a median of $5.39. 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 $2.17. Offers well below $1.30 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 $7.76 (14), German $7.04 (19), English $4.87 (199). French fetches about 59 % 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.
