A PSA 10 currently sells for about $49.52, raw the card sits at $4.01 — 12.3× as much. Of 306 copies already graded, 43 % received a 10 and 43 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $32.60 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 35 auctions the median was $2.96, across 130 fixed-price sales $4.65. Fixed price therefore fetched about 57 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $2.95 and $5.27, with a median of $3.94. 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 $2.29. Offers well below $1.37 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 $4.09 (199), German $2.82 (28). English fetches about 45 % 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.
