A PSA 10 currently sells for about £163.12, raw the card sits at £61.38 — 2,7× as much. Of 4.897 copies already graded, 62 % received a 10 and 31 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £131.92 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 65 auctions the median was £55.89, across 188 fixed-price sales £67.36. 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 £48.32 and £63.26, with a median of £55.35. 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 £40.03. Offers well below £24.02 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 £59.58 (269), German £42.71 (16). English fetches about 39 % 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.
