A PSA 10 currently sells for about £340.06, raw the card sits at £44.50 — 7,6× as much. Of 4.625 copies already graded, 26 % received a 10 and 43 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £146.90 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 118 auctions the median was £30.81, across 245 fixed-price sales £35.24. 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 £21.81 and £36.84, with a median of £29.08. 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 £14.79. Offers well below £8.87 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 £37.35 (12), German £30.37 (16), English £29.71 (338). Italian fetches about 85 % 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.
