A PSA 10 currently sells for about €149,38, raw the card sits at €8,69 — 17,2× as much. Of 558 copies already graded, 15 % received a 10 and 32 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €64,91 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 86 auctions the median was €4,36, across 203 fixed-price sales €5,77. Fixed price therefore fetched about 32 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €3,50 and €7,50, with a median of €5,23. 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 €2,41. Offers well below €1,45 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: German €9,79 (34), English €4,65 (192). German fetches about 111 % 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.
