A PSA 10 currently sells for about £59.98, raw the card sits at £3.72 — 16,1× as much. Of 4.014 copies already graded, 33 % received a 10 and 55 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £28.70 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 81 auctions the median was £2.87, across 370 fixed-price sales £4.02. Fixed price therefore fetched about 40 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £3.15 and £4.46, with a median of £3.72. 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 £2.56. Offers well below £1.54 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: French £4.07 (24), English £3.64 (765), German £2.59 (79). French fetches about 58 % 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.
