A PSA 10 currently sells for about £236.15, raw the card sits at £14.96 — 15,8× as much. Of 2.249 copies already graded, 19 % received a 10 and 52 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £66.78 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 114 auctions the median was £11.33, across 392 fixed-price sales £14.91. Fixed price therefore fetched about 32 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £11.92 and £17.70, with a median of £14.72. 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 £9.96. Offers well below £5.97 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 £14.83 (663), German £13.18 (52), Italian £8.42 (12). English fetches about 76 % 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.
