A PSA 10 currently sells for about €606,28, raw the card sits at €73,48 — 8,3× as much. Of 2.234 copies already graded, 29 % received a 10 and 41 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €250,28 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 50 auctions the median was €46,73, across 100 fixed-price sales €56,87. Fixed price therefore fetched about 22 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €32,55 and €61,00, with a median of €44,55. 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 €22,40. Offers well below €13,44 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 €51,51 (97), Italian €22,10 (10). English fetches about 133 % 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.
