A PSA 10 currently sells for about $1,853, raw the card sits at $68.09 — 27,2× as much. Of 1.237 copies already graded, 2 % received a 10 and 18 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $207.77 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 $25.26, across 154 fixed-price sales $35.33. Fixed price therefore fetched about 40 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $24.21 and $44.20, with a median of $33.79. 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 $17.85. Offers well below $10.71 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 $42.21 (250), German $24.72 (17), Japanese $19.63 (29). English fetches about 115 % 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.
