A PSA 10 currently sells for about £1,435, raw the card sits at £17.82 — 80.5× as much. Of 60.678 copies already graded, 5 % received a 10 and 38 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £124.90 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 341 auctions the median was £18.70, across 507 fixed-price sales £22.23. Fixed price therefore fetched about 19 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £14.97 and £25.29, with a median of £20.15. 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 £12.74. Offers well below £7.64 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 £22.43 (11), English £19.84 (715), German £17.58 (70). Italian fetches about 28 % more.

Last Sold 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.
