A PSA 10 currently sells for about $58.15, raw the card sits at $7.76 — 7,5× as much. Of 6.629 copies already graded, 67 % received a 10 and 29 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $45.66 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 207 auctions the median was $6.08, across 945 fixed-price sales $7.39. Fixed price therefore fetched about 21 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $5.89 and $8.21, with a median of $6.96. 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 $4.84. Offers well below $2.90 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: Italian $8.65 (64), English $7.51 (1081), German $5.61 (100). Italian fetches about 76 % 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.
