A PSA 10 currently sells for about €285,07, raw the card sits at €26,03 — 11,0× as much. Of 16.710 copies already graded, 26 % received a 10 and 56 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €101,92 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 238 auctions the median was €24,70, across 532 fixed-price sales €28,03. Fixed price therefore fetched about 13 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €21,85 and €30,60, with a median of €26,17. 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 €19,00. Offers well below €11,40 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 €29,15 (109), Italian €28,44 (56), English €25,10 (523). French fetches about 46 % 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.
