A PSA 10 currently sells for about $1,237, raw the card sits at $53.88 — 23,0× as much. Of 5.711 copies already graded, 17 % received a 10 and 46 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $346.59 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 82 auctions the median was $67.80, across 244 fixed-price sales $53.84. Auctions therefore fetched about 26 % more — worth it mainly for sought-after cards with several bidders.

Half of all sales fell between $41.76 and $58.16, with a median of $48.41. 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 $35.88. Offers well below $21.53 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: Italian $75.47 (15), English $50.00 (388). Italian fetches about 51 % 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.
