A PSA 10 currently sells for about $173.76, raw the card sits at $13.03 — 13,3× as much. Of 308 copies already graded, 42 % received a 10 and 36 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $130.66 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 $7.17, across 80 fixed-price sales $6.86. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $4.80 and $9.32, with a median of $6.16. 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 $3.70. Offers well below $2.22 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.
