A PSA 10 currently sells for about £280.34, raw the card sits at £3.52 — 79,6× as much. Of 5.836 copies already graded, 2 % received a 10 and 54 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £23.84 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 66 auctions the median was £3.95, across 121 fixed-price sales £3.98. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between £2.19 and £4.00, with a median of £2.87. 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 £1.49. Offers well below £0.89 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 £2.64 (361), Italian £2.25 (22). English fetches about 17 % 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.
