A PSA 10 currently sells for about $341.69, raw the card sits at $33.21 — 10,3× as much. Of 241 copies already graded, 50 % received a 10 and 33 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $213.06 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 26 auctions the median was $13.67, across 73 fixed-price sales $28.56. Fixed price therefore fetched about 109 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $16.34 and $31.68, with a median of $23.80. 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 $9.54. Offers well below $5.72 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: German $47.48 (15), English $29.42 (108). German fetches about 61 % 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.
