A PSA 10 currently sells for about €7.001,30, raw the card sits at €341,82 — 20,5× as much. Of 1.072 copies already graded, 16 % received a 10 and 27 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €2.096,75 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 22 auctions the median was €219,77, across 83 fixed-price sales €175,71. Auctions therefore fetched about 25 % more — worth it mainly for sought-after cards with several bidders.

Half of all sales fell between €65,01 and €183,39, with a median of €103,51. 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 €46,39. Offers well below €27,83 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.
