A PSA 10 currently sells for about £368.11, raw the card sits at £14.91 — 24,7× as much. Of 3.127 copies already graded, 23 % received a 10 and 35 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £155.05 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 26 auctions the median was £17.01, across 22 fixed-price sales £16.32. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between £11.11 and £19.13, with a median of £15.30. 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 £6.39. Offers well below £3.84 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 £18.42 (18), English £16.36 (30). French fetches about 13 % 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.
