A PSA 10 currently sells for about $8,021, raw the card sits at $213.32 — 37,6× as much. Mathematically, submitting returns $8,021 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.

Across 83 auctions the median was $125.80, across 147 fixed-price sales $156.02. Fixed price therefore fetched about 24 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $83.15 and $197.25, with a median of $139.77. 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 $56.12. Offers well below $33.67 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: English $166.57 (210), German $97.24 (12), Japanese $71.04 (33). English fetches about 134 % 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.
