A PSA 10 currently sells for about £32.06, raw the card sits at £2.49 — 12,9× as much. Of 680 copies already graded, 58 % received a 10 and 30 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £32.06 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 23 auctions the median was £1.68, across 86 fixed-price sales £2.44. Fixed price therefore fetched about 46 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £1.73 and £2.72, with a median of £2.19. 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 £1.19. Offers well below £0.71 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: German £4.24 (14), English £2.22 (163). German fetches about 91 % 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.
