A PSA 10 currently sells for about $464.32, raw the card sits at $10.35 — 44,9× as much. Of 3.724 copies already graded, 19 % received a 10 and 59 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $116.01 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 73 auctions the median was $9.69, across 347 fixed-price sales $11.67. 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 $8.85 and $12.31, with a median of $10.30. 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 $5.86. Offers well below $3.52 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 $12.82 (10), English $9.88 (298), German $7.85 (33). Italian fetches about 63 % 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.
