A PSA 10 currently sells for about £65.31, raw the card sits at £4.14 — 15,8× as much. Of 5.071 copies already graded, 45 % received a 10 and 44 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £37.54 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 108 auctions the median was £3.66, across 388 fixed-price sales £4.46. 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 £3.66 and £5.21, with a median of £4.39. 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 £2.90. Offers well below £1.74 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 £6.90 (18), German £4.24 (74), English £3.97 (572). Italian fetches about 77 % 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.
