A PSA 10 currently sells for about $84.22, raw the card sits at $8.36 — 10,1× as much. Of 13.338 copies already graded, 62 % received a 10 and 33 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $62.10 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 119 auctions the median was $12.73, across 412 fixed-price sales $8.94. Auctions therefore fetched about 42 % more — worth it mainly for sought-after cards with several bidders.

Half of all sales fell between $7.49 and $9.86, with a median of $8.53. 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 $5.89. Offers well below $3.54 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: German $16.83 (11), English $7.87 (500). German fetches about 114 % 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.
