A PSA 10 currently sells for about £5,492, raw the card sits at £14.98 — 366,6× as much. Of 320 copies already graded, 12 % received a 10 and 37 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns £869.15 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 46 auctions the median was £14.80, across 156 fixed-price sales £16.07. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between £11.87 and £19.90, with a median of £15.03. 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 £9.97. Offers well below £5.98 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

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.
