A PSA 10 currently sells for about $2,446, raw the card sits at $74.24 — 32,9× as much. Of 2.599 copies already graded, 4 % received a 10 and 32 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $298.28 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 106 auctions the median was $50.34, across 197 fixed-price sales $59.10. Fixed price therefore fetched about 17 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $39.15 and $70.40, with a median of $52.80. 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 $28.76. Offers well below $17.26 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 $66.86 (10), English $54.33 (351), German $27.16 (28). Italian fetches about 146 % 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.
