A PSA 10 currently sells for about £199.26, raw the card sits at £2.88 — 69,1× as much. Of 934 copies already graded, 14 % received a 10 and 30 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £75.47 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 43 auctions the median was £2.55, across 109 fixed-price sales £2.68. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between £1.58 and £3.63, with a median of £2.39. 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 £1.08. Offers well below £0.65 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: Japanese £2.75 (28), German £2.19 (27), English £1.82 (163). Japanese fetches about 51 % 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.
