A PSA 10 currently sells for about £211.77, raw the card sits at £16.95 — 12,5× as much. Of 225 copies already graded, 46 % received a 10 and 35 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £131.98 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 28 auctions the median was £13.49, across 64 fixed-price sales £15.62. Fixed price therefore fetched about 16 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £11.13 and £17.70, with a median of £14.74. 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 £7.65. Offers well below £4.59 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 £14.83 (80), German £8.49 (10). English 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.
