A PSA 10 currently sells for about $68.50, raw the card sits at $4.57 — 15.0× as much. Of 5.174 copies already graded, 45 % received a 10 and 45 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $43.42 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 207 auctions the median was $5.36, across 938 fixed-price sales $5.03. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $3.63 and $8.98, with a median of $4.83. 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 $2.90. Offers well below $1.74 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: French $11.93 (20), German $5.77 (77), Italian $5.18 (68). French fetches about 166 % more.

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.
