A PSA 10 currently sells for about $57.20, raw the card sits at $4.95 — 11,6× as much. Of 1.023 copies already graded, 46 % received a 10 and 42 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $31.09 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 29 auctions the median was $3.88, across 145 fixed-price sales $5.80. Fixed price therefore fetched about 49 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $4.84 and $6.91, with a median of $5.81. 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 $4.15. Offers well below $2.49 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 $7.21 (28), English $4.95 (299). German fetches about 46 % 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.
