A PSA 10 currently sells for about $4,482, raw the card sits at $105.64 — 42,4× as much. Of 1.842 copies already graded, 7 % received a 10 and 26 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $827.35 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 74 auctions the median was $89.80, across 164 fixed-price sales $97.89. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $45.46 and $106.48, with a median of $73.46. 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 $33.67. Offers well below $20.20 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 $100.51 (206), German $78.35 (19). English fetches about 28 % 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.
