A PSA 10 currently sells for about £181.58, raw the card sits at £3.30 — 55,0× as much. Of 2.052 copies already graded, 41 % received a 10 and 45 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £85.75 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 47 auctions the median was £2.55, across 192 fixed-price sales £2.98. Fixed price therefore fetched about 17 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £2.36 and £3.56, with a median of £2.93. 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 £1.86. Offers well below £1.12 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 £3.40 (28), English £2.97 (488). German fetches about 15 % 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.
