A PSA 10 currently sells for about £675.78, raw the card sits at £19.26 — 35.1× as much. Of 7.525 copies already graded, 14 % received a 10 and 53 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £137.26 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 161 auctions the median was £12.68, across 434 fixed-price sales £15.46. Fixed price therefore fetched about 22 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £11.37 and £17.69, with a median of £14.40. 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 £7.81. Offers well below £4.69 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 £16.32 (610), Italian £15.57 (86), French £13.06 (20). English fetches about 35 % 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.
