A PSA 10 currently sells for about $198.02, raw the card sits at $8.86 — 22,4× as much. Of 4.053 copies already graded, 34 % received a 10 and 48 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $82.24 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 133 auctions the median was $8.06, across 393 fixed-price sales $8.74. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $6.81 and $9.81, with a median of $7.90. 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 $5.43. Offers well below $3.26 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 $15.19 (25), German $8.53 (63), English $6.91 (726). French fetches about 120 % 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.
