A PSA 10 currently sells for about €1.070,34, raw the card sits at €25,36 — 42,2× as much. Of 4.174 copies already graded, 2 % received a 10 and 19 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €123,69 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 171 auctions the median was €13,15, across 217 fixed-price sales €18,72. Fixed price therefore fetched about 42 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €11,49 and €20,90, with a median of €15,69. 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 €8,72. Offers well below €5,23 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: English €16,37 (239), Japanese €14,55 (13). English fetches about 13 % 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.
