A PSA 10 currently sells for about $317.76, raw the card sits at $4.82 — 66,0× as much. Of 655 copies already graded, 45 % received a 10 and 39 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $164.83 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 11 auctions the median was $2.87, across 92 fixed-price sales $3.81. Fixed price therefore fetched about 32 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $3.12 and $4.69, with a median of $3.83. 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 $2.51. Offers well below $1.51 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 $11.21 (17), English $4.82 (434), French $4.43 (13). German fetches about 153 % 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.
