A PSA 10 currently sells for about $136.16, raw the card sits at $18.14 — 7,5× as much. Of 238 copies already graded, 27 % received a 10 and 56 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns $56.69 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 34 auctions the median was $10.14, across 103 fixed-price sales $15.48. Fixed price therefore fetched about 53 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between $12.37 and $17.63, with a median of $14.92. 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 $9.64. Offers well below $5.79 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 $22.43 (11), English $17.31 (165). German fetches about 30 % 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.
