A PSA 10 currently sells for about €113,25, raw the card sits at €17,34 — 6,5× as much. Of 6.327 copies already graded, 37 % received a 10 and 40 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €58,18 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 123 auctions the median was €8,78, across 236 fixed-price sales €14,75. Fixed price therefore fetched about 68 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €9,41 and €15,75, with a median of €12,81. 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 €6,14. Offers well below €3,68 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 €13,13 (33), English €11,83 (211). Italian fetches about 11 % 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.
