A PSA 10 currently sells for about £55.20, raw the card sits at £8.92 — 6,2× as much. Of 10.762 copies already graded, 56 % received a 10 and 37 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £37.99 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 230 auctions the median was £11.49, across 649 fixed-price sales £13.25. Fixed price therefore fetched about 15 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £9.69 and £13.61, with a median of £11.56. 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 £8.13. Offers well below £4.88 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: Italian £12.75 (24), French £10.99 (22), English £9.72 (829). Italian fetches about 33 % 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.
