A PSA 10 currently sells for about £2,985, raw the card sits at £121.49 — 24,6× as much. Of 1.470 copies already graded, 16 % received a 10 and 29 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £1,119 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 50 auctions the median was £110.42, across 69 fixed-price sales £117.56. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between £62.57 and £128.53, with a median of £98.79. 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 £39.21. Offers well below £23.53 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 £115.25 (97), German £98.03 (11). English fetches about 18 % 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.
