A PSA 10 currently sells for about £241.89, raw the card sits at £37.13 — 6,5× as much. Of 1.257 copies already graded, 55 % received a 10 and 35 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £153.73 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 71 auctions the median was £25.20, across 252 fixed-price sales £29.68. Fixed price therefore fetched about 18 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £22.25 and £31.80, with a median of £26.67. 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 £17.43. Offers well below £10.46 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: English £31.68 (330), Italian £22.84 (11), German £21.63 (12). English fetches about 46 % 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.
