A PSA 10 currently sells for about £90.72, raw the card sits at £4.96 — 18,3× as much. Of 1.924 copies already graded, 31 % received a 10 and 47 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £38.75 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 110 auctions the median was £3.49, across 533 fixed-price sales £4.01. Fixed price therefore fetched about 15 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £3.15 and £4.63, with a median of £3.87. 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 £2.75. Offers well below £1.65 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 £6.68 (49), English £4.46 (784), French £3.81 (11). German fetches about 75 % 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.
