A PSA 10 currently sells for about $95.36, raw the card sits at $16.80 — 5.7× as much. Of 4.093 copies already graded, 45 % received a 10 and 46 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $56.48 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 127 auctions the median was $17.01, across 345 fixed-price sales $19.53. Fixed price therefore fetched about 15 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $16.68 and $21.33, with a median of $19.14. 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 $13.81. Offers well below $8.29 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 $17.00 (433), German $16.79 (21). The difference is small — language barely matters here.

Last Sold 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.
