A PSA 10 currently sells for about $337.43, raw the card sits at $29.19 — 11,6× as much. Of 634 copies already graded, 23 % received a 10 and 60 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $102.42 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 76 auctions the median was $21.06, across 237 fixed-price sales $26.87. Fixed price therefore fetched about 28 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $20.95 and $31.09, with a median of $24.41. 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 $17.20. Offers well below $10.32 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 $28.17 (27), English $26.34 (364). 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.
