A PSA 10 currently sells for about $2,819, raw the card sits at $15.23 — 185,0× as much. Of 341 copies already graded, 7 % received a 10 and 33 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $400.21 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 38 auctions the median was $13.92, across 92 fixed-price sales $16.38. Fixed price therefore fetched about 18 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $9.79 and $24.75, with a median of $15.18. 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 $5.87. Offers well below $3.52 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 $22.41 (32), English $18.30 (133), French $17.84 (12). 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.
