A PSA 10 currently sells for about €124,72, raw the card sits at €2,79 — 44,7× as much. Of 1.163 copies already graded, 11 % received a 10 and 27 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €59,98 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 45 auctions the median was €1,75, across 147 fixed-price sales €2,20. Fixed price therefore fetched about 26 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €1,65 and €3,11, with a median of €2,09. 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 €1,00. Offers well below €0,60 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 €1,87 (150), Italian €1,57 (17). English fetches about 19 % 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.
