A PSA 10 currently sells for about £513.44, raw the card sits at £111.06 — 4,6× as much. Of 4.709 copies already graded, 46 % received a 10 and 40 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £299.77 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 46 auctions the median was £76.26, across 234 fixed-price sales £87.31. Fixed price therefore fetched about 14 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £58.19 and £89.69, with a median of £72.18. 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 £43.82. Offers well below £26.29 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

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.
