A PSA 10 currently sells for about £1,643, raw the card sits at £18.26 — 90,0× as much. Of 2.722 copies already graded, 7 % received a 10 and 35 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £217.96 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 120 auctions the median was £10.48, across 284 fixed-price sales £14.91. Fixed price therefore fetched about 42 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £9.20 and £17.77, with a median of £13.20. 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 £6.51. Offers well below £3.90 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 £13.41 (354), German £12.64 (46), Japanese £11.21 (80). English fetches about 20 % 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.
