A PSA 10 currently sells for about $985.40, raw the card sits at $451.15 — 2,2× as much. Of 22.085 copies already graded, 51 % received a 10 and 38 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $737.73 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 343 auctions the median was $460.22, across 484 fixed-price sales $490.80. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $342.70 and $469.77, with a median of $412.35. 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 $259.86. Offers well below $155.92 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 $424.11 (23), English $395.42 (512), Italian $336.75 (16). German fetches about 26 % 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.
