A PSA 10 currently sells for about $213.98, raw the card sits at $9.72 — 22,0× as much. Of 169 copies already graded, 34 % received a 10 and 44 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $119.38 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 22 auctions the median was $5.13, across 54 fixed-price sales $11.47. Fixed price therefore fetched about 124 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $6.45 and $13.44, with a median of $9.73. 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 $4.19. Offers well below $2.51 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

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.
