A PSA 10 currently sells for about €133,59, raw the card sits at €6,50 — 20,6× as much. Of 2.190 copies already graded, 34 % received a 10 and 48 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €58,89 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 27 auctions the median was €5,43, across 270 fixed-price sales €6,53. Fixed price therefore fetched about 20 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €4,71 and €7,50, with a median of €6,01. 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 €3,98. Offers well below €2,39 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 €8,00 (11), German €7,58 (17), Italian €6,74 (16). French fetches about 31 % 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.
