A PSA 10 currently sells for about $327.32, raw the card sits at $9.68 — 33.8× as much. Of 444 copies already graded, 29 % received a 10 and 53 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $111.47 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 47 auctions the median was $7.70, across 222 fixed-price sales $11.27. Fixed price therefore fetched about 46 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $9.15 and $12.58, with a median of $11.27. 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 $7.44. Offers well below $4.46 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 $11.61 (321), German $11.27 (20), French $11.27 (10). The difference is small — language barely matters here.

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.
