A PSA 10 currently sells for about $77.69, raw the card sits at $6.52 — 11.9× as much. Of 3.964 copies already graded, 30 % received a 10 and 58 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $35.02 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 189 auctions the median was $4.88, across 573 fixed-price sales $6.43. Fixed price therefore fetched about 32 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $4.81 and $6.98, with a median of $5.82. 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 $3.84. Offers well below $2.30 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 $10.07 (19), English $6.52 (864), German $5.58 (54). French fetches about 87 % 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.
