A PSA 10 currently sells for about $279.56, raw the card sits at $22.37 — 12,5× as much. Of 225 copies already graded, 46 % received a 10 and 35 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $174.22 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 28 auctions the median was $17.81, across 64 fixed-price sales $20.62. Fixed price therefore fetched about 16 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $14.69 and $23.36, with a median of $19.45. 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 $10.10. Offers well below $6.06 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 $19.58 (80), German $11.21 (10). English fetches about 75 % 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.
