A PSA 10 currently sells for about £71.35, raw the card sits at £4.41 — 16,2× as much. Of 5.344 copies already graded, 52 % received a 10 and 36 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £49.61 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 75 auctions the median was £3.22, across 286 fixed-price sales £4.41. Fixed price therefore fetched about 37 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £3.14 and £4.89, with a median of £4.05. 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 £2.13. Offers well below £1.28 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: French £5.10 (37), English £4.41 (312), Italian £4.15 (13). French fetches about 71 % 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.
