Fuecoco

A PSA 10 currently sells for about £247.44, raw the card sits at £28.34 — 8,7× as much. Of 3.905 copies already graded, 20 % received a 10 and 50 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £85.39 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 177 auctions the median was £29.74, across 311 fixed-price sales £32.72. Fixed price therefore fetched about 10 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £25.67 and £36.45, with a median of £31.18. 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 £19.56. Offers well below £11.73 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 £29.46 (525), French £19.29 (10), German £18.89 (47). English fetches about 56 % 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.
