A PSA 10 currently sells for about $782.94, raw the card sits at $8.04 — 97,4× as much. Of 423 copies already graded, 16 % received a 10 and 36 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $262.10 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 13 auctions the median was $6.45, across 35 fixed-price sales $5.66. Auctions therefore fetched about 14 % more — worth it mainly for sought-after cards with several bidders.

Half of all sales fell between $3.92 and $7.88, with a median of $5.30. 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 $2.40. Offers well below $1.44 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

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.
