A PSA 10 currently sells for about £33.50, raw the card sits at £3.66 — 9,2× as much. Of 2.469 copies already graded, 53 % received a 10 and 38 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £23.87 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 36 auctions the median was £2.97, across 166 fixed-price sales £3.73. Fixed price therefore fetched about 26 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £2.93 and £4.42, with a median of £3.55. 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 £2.37. Offers well below £1.42 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: Italian £3.62 (10), German £3.40 (48), English £2.93 (332). Italian fetches about 23 % 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.
