A PSA 10 currently sells for about €1.208,55, raw the card sits at €81,26 — 14,9× as much. Of 267 copies already graded, 21 % received a 10 and 31 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €480,45 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 15 auctions the median was €33,14, across 37 fixed-price sales €56,17. Fixed price therefore fetched about 69 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €31,89 and €56,17, with a median of €41,86. 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 €17,45. Offers well below €10,47 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

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.
