A PSA 10 currently sells for about $4,961, raw the card sits at $89.07 — 55,7× as much. Of 604 copies already graded, 12 % received a 10 and 37 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $1,105 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 39 auctions the median was $60.97, across 75 fixed-price sales $76.44. Fixed price therefore fetched about 25 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $56.39 and $82.16, with a median of $67.57. 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 $38.32. Offers well below $22.99 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 $78.32 (103), French $46.68 (10). English fetches about 68 % 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.
