A PSA 10 currently sells for about $1,379, raw the card sits at $19.45 — 70,9× as much. Of 193 copies already graded, 17 % received a 10 and 46 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $299.77 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 17 auctions the median was $16.79, across 109 fixed-price sales $19.58. Fixed price therefore fetched about 17 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $10.44 and $28.93, with a median of $18.67. 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 $6.95. Offers well below $4.17 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 $19.40 (239), Italian $18.16 (14). The difference is small — language barely matters here.

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.
