A PSA 10 currently sells for about £68.77, raw the card sits at £10.99 — 6,3× as much. Of 902 copies already graded, 31 % received a 10 and 54 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £42.19 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 43 auctions the median was £6.95, across 134 fixed-price sales £8.99. Fixed price therefore fetched about 29 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £6.95 and £9.97, with a median of £8.45. 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 £5.82. Offers well below £3.49 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: German £8.49 (12), English £8.38 (219). The difference is small — language barely matters here.

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.
