A PSA 10 currently sells for about $255.36, raw the card sits at $19.57 — 13,1× as much. Of 2.152 copies already graded, 17 % received a 10 and 50 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $61.90 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 109 auctions the median was $12.13, across 340 fixed-price sales $15.75. Fixed price therefore fetched about 30 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $12.34 and $18.40, with a median of $15.13. 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 $10.10. Offers well below $6.06 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: German $15.01 (38), English $14.76 (537). The difference is small — language barely matters here.

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.
