A PSA 10 currently sells for about £3,633, raw the card sits at £13.28 — 273,5× as much. Of 477 copies already graded, 5 % received a 10 and 31 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £318.83 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 25 auctions the median was £7.33, across 151 fixed-price sales £11.18. Fixed price therefore fetched about 53 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £6.02 and £12.46, with a median of £8.41. 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 £3.70. Offers well below £2.22 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.
