A PSA 10 currently sells for about £278.10, raw the card sits at £10.13 — 27,5× as much. Of 1.890 copies already graded, 23 % received a 10 and 25 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £131.61 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 84 auctions the median was £10.23, across 246 fixed-price sales £11.07. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between £7.78 and £13.93, with a median of £10.80. 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 £5.21. Offers well below £3.13 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: Italian £13.04 (18), English £10.14 (349). Italian fetches about 29 % 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.
