A PSA 10 currently sells for about £2,611, raw the card sits at £44.23 — 59,0× as much. Of 594 copies already graded, 15 % received a 10 and 30 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £693.06 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 30 auctions the median was £29.59, across 105 fixed-price sales £35.05. Fixed price therefore fetched about 18 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £22.02 and £45.76, with a median of £31.17. 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 £14.80. Offers well below £8.88 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.
