A PSA 10 currently sells for about $151.84, raw the card sits at $35.75 — 4,2× as much. Of 120.378 copies already graded, 48 % received a 10 and 38 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $94.51 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 133 auctions the median was $50.51, across 290 fixed-price sales $54.46. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $39.29 and $56.12, with a median of $47.14. 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 $29.75. Offers well below $17.85 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 $67.35 (32), German $44.90 (102), English $31.30 (159). French fetches about 115 % 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.
