A PSA 10 currently sells for about £4,473, raw the card sits at £282.28 — 15,8× as much. Of 701 copies already graded, 13 % received a 10 and 30 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £1,402 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 40 auctions the median was £121.93, across 110 fixed-price sales £140.75. Fixed price therefore fetched about 15 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £55.36 and £147.21, with a median of £86.99. 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 £35.58. Offers well below £21.35 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 £146.59 (103), German £91.61 (14). English fetches about 60 % 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.
