A PSA 10 currently sells for about £2,483, raw the card sits at £148.28 — 16,7× as much. Of 860 copies already graded, 12 % received a 10 and 29 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £694.68 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 60 auctions the median was £79.37, across 134 fixed-price sales £87.65. Fixed price therefore fetched about 10 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £33.46 and £87.65, with a median of £51.51. 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 £23.72. Offers well below £14.23 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 £50.67 (126), German £44.91 (17). English fetches about 13 % 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.
