A PSA 10 currently sells for about £469.43, raw the card sits at £17.32 — 27,1× as much. Of 343 copies already graded, 8 % received a 10 and 24 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £106.48 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 54 auctions the median was £10.24, across 123 fixed-price sales £11.26. Fixed price therefore fetched about 10 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £7.11 and £17.35, with a median of £10.36. 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 £5.13. Offers well below £3.08 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 £15.66 (161), French £10.54 (12), German £7.91 (42). English fetches about 98 % 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.
