A PSA 10 currently sells for about £83.28, raw the card sits at £17.93 — 4.6× as much. Of 4.995 copies already graded, 70 % received a 10 and 25 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £67.19 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 121 auctions the median was £18.66, across 270 fixed-price sales £23.72. Fixed price therefore fetched about 27 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £16.27 and £22.41, with a median of £18.71. 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 £13.09. Offers well below £7.85 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: German £21.15 (20), English £17.89 (292). German 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.
