A PSA 10 currently sells for about £178.27, raw the card sits at £61.02 — 2,9× as much. Of 20.703 copies already graded, 70 % received a 10 and 22 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £149.12 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 312 auctions the median was £80.31, across 603 fixed-price sales £84.95. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between £56.00 and £79.07, with a median of £66.95. 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 £46.77. Offers well below £28.06 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 £76.90 (21), English £60.72 (659), Italian £55.27 (13). French fetches about 47 % 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.
