A PSA 10 currently sells for about $93.39, raw the card sits at $21.37 — 4,4× as much. Mathematically, submitting returns $93.39 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.

Across 206 auctions the median was $36.13, across 375 fixed-price sales $39.87. Fixed price therefore fetched about 10 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $26.88 and $37.36, with a median of $30.97. 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 $22.54. Offers well below $13.52 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 $29.50 (40), Japanese $28.16 (601). 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.
