A PSA 10 currently sells for about £124.73, raw the card sits at £1.12 — 111,1× as much. Of 3.820 copies already graded, 23 % received a 10 and 41 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £46.70 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 19 auctions the median was £1.68, across 21 fixed-price sales £2.05. Fixed price therefore fetched about 22 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £1.28 and £3.55, with a median of £2.05. 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 £0.85. Offers well below £0.51 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: German £3.63 (14), English £1.57 (83). German fetches about 131 % 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.
