A PSA 10 currently sells for about £119.02, raw the card sits at £25.96 — 4.6× as much. Of 3.368 copies already graded, 62 % received a 10 and 33 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £92.98 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 11 auctions the median was £32.65, across 72 fixed-price sales £36.21. Fixed price therefore fetched about 11 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £28.29 and £37.20, with a median of £30.96. 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 £25.68. Offers well below £15.41 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 £31.48 (50), Italian £31.22 (42). The difference is small — language barely matters here.

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.
