A PSA 10 currently sells for about £54.16, raw the card sits at £7.44 — 7.3× as much. Of 1.058 copies already graded, 35 % received a 10 and 51 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £28.68 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 53 auctions the median was £5.84, across 182 fixed-price sales £7.42. Fixed price therefore fetched about 27 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £6.05 and £8.17, with a median of £7.08. 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 £4.67. Offers well below £2.80 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 £7.28 (314), German £4.24 (35). English fetches about 72 % 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.
