A PSA 10 currently sells for about $2,117, raw the card sits at $9.08 — 233,1× as much. Of 297 copies already graded, 21 % received a 10 and 44 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $592.62 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 25 auctions the median was $10.05, across 62 fixed-price sales $13.36. Fixed price therefore fetched about 33 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $7.29 and $14.96, with a median of $10.85. 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 $5.39. Offers well below $3.23 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

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.
