A PSA 10 currently sells for about £187.21, raw the card sits at £37.97 — 4,9× as much. Of 3.662 copies already graded, 40 % received a 10 and 50 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £98.54 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 159 auctions the median was £22.53, across 442 fixed-price sales £30.99. Fixed price therefore fetched about 38 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £21.25 and £36.39, with a median of £29.77. 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 £16.66. Offers well below £9.99 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 £31.89 (603), French £25.49 (18), German £17.86 (63). English fetches about 79 % 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.
