A PSA 10 currently sells for about €312,81, raw the card sits at €17,67 — 17,7× as much. Of 8.022 copies already graded, 30 % received a 10 and 53 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €111,87 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 73 auctions the median was €20,00, across 276 fixed-price sales €17,21. Auctions therefore fetched about 16 % more — worth it mainly for sought-after cards with several bidders.

Half of all sales fell between €15,00 and €18,59, with a median of €16,74. 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 €13,23. Offers well below €7,94 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: French €23,02 (15), German €20,49 (22), English €17,09 (315). French fetches about 35 % 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.
