A PSA 10 currently sells for about $674.29, raw the card sits at $31.93 — 21.1× as much. Of 4.692 copies already graded, 24 % received a 10 and 53 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $219.94 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 198 auctions the median was $35.30, across 392 fixed-price sales $37.03. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between $27.07 and $40.92, with a median of $33.56. 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 $22.63. Offers well below $13.58 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 $39.96 (449), French $37.04 (15), German $33.66 (19). English fetches about 22 % more.

Last Sold 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.
