A PSA 10 currently sells for about £175.01, raw the card sits at £6.95 — 25,2× as much. Of 520 copies already graded, 75 % received a 10 and 17 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £147.07 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 327 auctions the median was £9.80, across 938 fixed-price sales £11.86. Fixed price therefore fetched about 21 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £8.17 and £13.73, with a median of £10.71. 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 £6.68. Offers well below £4.01 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 £10.15 (65), Italian £7.94 (14), English £7.43 (1357). 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.
