A PSA 10 currently sells for about £75.66, raw the card sits at £27.91 — 2,7× as much. Of 3.892 copies already graded, 69 % received a 10 and 26 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £61.75 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 143 auctions the median was £23.98, across 320 fixed-price sales £28.17. Fixed price therefore fetched about 17 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £22.77 and £29.75, with a median of £25.67. 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 £20.35. Offers well below £12.21 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 £42.52 (15), German £28.06 (25), English £26.81 (349). French fetches about 59 % 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.
