A PSA 10 currently sells for about $205.65, raw the card sits at $17.72 — 11.6× as much. Of 22.413 copies already graded, 33 % received a 10 and 58 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $87.89 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 421 auctions the median was $19.82, across 881 fixed-price sales $21.82. Fixed price therefore fetched about 10 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $16.61 and $24.58, with a median of $19.56. 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 $14.43. Offers well below $8.66 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 $44.50 (70), Italian $22.89 (37), English $17.69 (1284). French fetches about 165 % 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.
