A PSA 10 currently sells for about £59.38, raw the card sits at £13.01 — 4,6× as much. Of 2.051 copies already graded, 43 % received a 10 and 42 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £36.96 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 60 auctions the median was £11.27, across 167 fixed-price sales £14.55. Fixed price therefore fetched about 29 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £10.84 and £15.73, with a median of £13.11. 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 £8.15. Offers well below £4.89 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 £12.60 (228), German £8.36 (10). English 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.
