A PSA 10 currently sells for about €66,91, raw the card sits at €13,02 — 5,1× as much. Of 3.108 copies already graded, 49 % received a 10 and 37 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €42,42 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 81 auctions the median was €8,55, across 177 fixed-price sales €13,01. Fixed price therefore fetched about 52 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €9,54 and €13,83, with a median of €11,82. 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 €6,90. Offers well below €4,14 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 €11,36 (161), French €9,76 (13). English fetches about 16 % 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.
