A PSA 10 currently sells for about £413.88, raw the card sits at £20.08 — 20,6× as much. Of 222 copies already graded, 16 % received a 10 and 32 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £119.91 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 32 auctions the median was £7.30, across 130 fixed-price sales £9.02. Fixed price therefore fetched about 24 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £5.94 and £12.12, with a median of £8.89. 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 £3.35. Offers well below £2.01 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 £10.49 (249), Japanese £6.97 (27). English fetches about 50 % 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.
