A PSA 10 currently sells for about $2,939, raw the card sits at $78.95 — 37,2× as much. Of 968 copies already graded, 15 % received a 10 and 43 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $714.93 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 56 auctions the median was $52.47, across 218 fixed-price sales $58.09. Fixed price therefore fetched about 11 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $49.27 and $76.43, with a median of $61.15. 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 $40.79. Offers well below $24.47 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 $79.10 (531), Italian $74.29 (12), French $67.34 (10). English fetches about 41 % 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.
