A PSA 10 currently sells for about £81.27, raw the card sits at £11.26 — 7,2× as much. Of 1.105 copies already graded, 57 % received a 10 and 32 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £54.61 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 43 auctions the median was £8.09, across 173 fixed-price sales £10.66. Fixed price therefore fetched about 32 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £8.01 and £11.46, with a median of £9.72. 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 £5.99. Offers well below £3.59 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 £10.40 (241), German £7.65 (10). English fetches about 36 % 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.
