A PSA 10 currently sells for about $668.17, raw the card sits at $53.14 — 12,6× as much. Of 3.769 copies already graded, 38 % received a 10 and 42 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $312.18 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 105 auctions the median was $39.20, across 291 fixed-price sales $48.25. Fixed price therefore fetched about 23 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $31.94 and $53.03, with a median of $40.69. 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 $22.90. Offers well below $13.74 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 $48.00 (393), German $33.67 (21). English fetches about 43 % 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.
