A PSA 10 currently sells for about €179,27, raw the card sits at €3,48 — 51,5× as much. Of 4.741 copies already graded, 26 % received a 10 and 40 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €70,45 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 12 auctions the median was €2,19, across 27 fixed-price sales €4,23. Fixed price therefore fetched about 93 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €1,97 and €4,60, with a median of €3,10. 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 €1,18. Offers well below €0,71 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.
