A PSA 10 currently sells for about £156.04, raw the card sits at £44.43 — 3.5× as much. Of 10.752 copies already graded, 52 % received a 10 and 35 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £111.63 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 160 auctions the median was £57.22, across 380 fixed-price sales £56.16. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between £43.07 and £57.87, with a median of £48.84. 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 £37.59. Offers well below £22.55 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: French £54.83 (13), German £51.23 (11), English £44.39 (534). French fetches about 24 % more.

Last Sold 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.
