A PSA 10 currently sells for about $202.56, raw the card sits at $14.83 — 13,7× as much. Of 304 copies already graded, 16 % received a 10 and 28 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $75.33 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 59 auctions the median was $7.70, across 210 fixed-price sales $11.55. Fixed price therefore fetched about 50 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $8.05 and $13.89, with a median of $10.51. 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 $5.93. Offers well below $3.56 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: Japanese $16.77 (33), German $12.93 (16), English $11.18 (325). Japanese fetches about 50 % 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.
