A PSA 10 currently sells for about $698.36, raw the card sits at $382.88 — 1,8× as much. Of 21.390 copies already graded, 60 % received a 10 and 32 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $558.41 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 259 auctions the median was $295.25, across 477 fixed-price sales $323.03. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $226.60 and $315.59, with a median of $278.18. 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 $179.60. Offers well below $107.76 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 $336.75 (12), English $310.89 (474), German $216.15 (28). French fetches about 56 % 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.
