A PSA 10 currently sells for about £420.17, raw the card sits at £6.65 — 63,2× as much. Of 1.648 copies already graded, 15 % received a 10 and 48 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £88.34 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 49 auctions the median was £5.53, across 270 fixed-price sales £6.60. Fixed price therefore fetched about 19 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £5.51 and £7.48, with a median of £6.54. 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 £3.98. Offers well below £2.39 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 £11.79 (35), English £5.64 (490). German fetches about 109 % 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.
