A PSA 10 currently sells for about $5,570, raw the card sits at $318.24 — 17.5× as much. Of 1.135 copies already graded, 6 % received a 10 and 22 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $1,498 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 44 auctions the median was $322.68, across 69 fixed-price sales $262.69. Auctions therefore fetched about 23 % more — worth it mainly for sought-after cards with several bidders.

Half of all sales fell between $143.22 and $239.86, with a median of $177.53. 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 $100.99. Offers well below $60.60 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.
