A PSA 10 currently sells for about €401,64, raw the card sits at €9,29 — 43,2× as much. Of 255 copies already graded, 23 % received a 10 and 54 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €131,65 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 40 auctions the median was €6,01, across 187 fixed-price sales €7,87. Fixed price therefore fetched about 31 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €6,24 and €8,74, with a median of €7,43. 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 €5,09. Offers well below €3,05 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 €8,66 (11), English €8,36 (193), German €7,82 (18). Italian fetches about 11 % 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.
