A PSA 10 currently sells for about £59.47, raw the card sits at £6.44 — 9,2× as much. Of 788 copies already graded, 42 % received a 10 and 49 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £44.97 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 53 auctions the median was £4.12, across 266 fixed-price sales £6.12. Fixed price therefore fetched about 48 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £4.78 and £6.94, with a median of £5.87. 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 £3.75. Offers well below £2.25 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 £6.96 (50), English £6.43 (367), German £4.24 (33). Italian fetches about 64 % 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.
