A PSA 10 currently sells for about $144.09, raw the card sits at $14.75 — 9.8× as much. Of 6.344 copies already graded, 32 % received a 10 and 57 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $62.41 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 156 auctions the median was $10.66, across 619 fixed-price sales $13.68. Fixed price therefore fetched about 28 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $11.30 and $15.19, with a median of $13.15. 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 $9.70. Offers well below $5.82 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: French $27.96 (23), Italian $14.41 (10), English $13.00 (889). French fetches about 127 % 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.
