A PSA 10 currently sells for about €105,11, raw the card sits at €10,50 — 10,0× as much. Of 7.473 copies already graded, 60 % received a 10 and 32 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €74,17 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 173 auctions the median was €10,00, across 261 fixed-price sales €11,35. Fixed price therefore fetched about 14 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €8,50 and €12,61, with a median of €10,29. 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 €6,12. Offers well below €3,67 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 €10,79 (22), French €10,40 (44), English €9,49 (272). Italian fetches about 27 % 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.
