A PSA 10 currently sells for about £7,012, raw the card sits at £121.38 — 57,8× as much. Of 1.192 copies already graded, 2 % received a 10 and 20 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £371.60 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 67 auctions the median was £67.33, across 167 fixed-price sales £85.03. Fixed price therefore fetched about 26 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £47.62 and £93.52, with a median of £68.66. 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 £33.38. Offers well below £20.03 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 £88.39 (256), French £53.03 (18). English fetches about 67 % 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.
