A PSA 10 currently sells for about £1,167, raw the card sits at £91.04 — 12,8× as much. Of 805 copies already graded, 28 % received a 10 and 26 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £536.11 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 38 auctions the median was £58.91, across 101 fixed-price sales £67.64. 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 £48.46 and £78.99, with a median of £63.77. 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 £37.07. Offers well below £22.24 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 £66.67 (153), German £46.77 (11), French £45.82 (12). English fetches about 45 % 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.
