A PSA 10 currently sells for about £1,842, raw the card sits at £85.14 — 21,6× as much. Of 1.241 copies already graded, 24 % received a 10 and 34 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £712.47 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 92 auctions the median was £106.76, across 173 fixed-price sales £111.36. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between £34.51 and £73.32, with a median of £54.36. 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 £22.50. Offers well below £13.50 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

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.
