A PSA 10 currently sells for about £47.63, raw the card sits at £4.57 — 10,4× as much. Of 1.252 copies already graded, 33 % received a 10 and 45 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £30.18 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 54 auctions the median was £2.93, across 191 fixed-price sales £5.59. Fixed price therefore fetched about 90 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £3.92 and £6.22, with a median of £4.86. 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 £2.94. Offers well below £1.77 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 £4.20 (367), German £2.56 (43). English fetches about 64 % 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.
