A PSA 10 currently sells for about £20.96, raw the card sits at £2.11 — 9,9× as much. Of 366 copies already graded, 47 % received a 10 and 42 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £16.63 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 27 auctions the median was £1.13, across 114 fixed-price sales £1.85. Fixed price therefore fetched about 64 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between £1.41 and £2.45, with a median of £1.78. 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 £1.01. Offers well below £0.61 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 £2.04 (221), German £0.86 (21). English fetches about 138 % 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.
