A PSA 10 currently sells for about $1,398, raw the card sits at $13.83 — 101,1× as much. Of 473 copies already graded, 11 % received a 10 and 39 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $244.67 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 51 auctions the median was $8.98, across 103 fixed-price sales $10.25. Fixed price therefore fetched about 14 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $4.94 and $12.37, with a median of $7.77. 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 $2.81. Offers well below $1.68 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 $16.83 (11), French $12.11 (11), English $6.94 (180). German fetches about 143 % 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.
