A PSA 10 currently sells for about £174.62, raw the card sits at £10.48 — 16,7× as much. Mathematically, submitting returns £174.62 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.

Across 65 auctions the median was £5.07, across 123 fixed-price sales £7.44. Fixed price therefore fetched about 47 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £4.39 and £8.95, with a median of £6.33. 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 £2.98. Offers well below £1.79 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 £7.44 (223), German £3.83 (13). English fetches about 94 % 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.
