A PSA 10 currently sells for about €4.895,36, raw the card sits at €70,20 — 69,7× as much. Of 2.060 copies already graded, 2 % received a 10 and 20 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €422,72 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 81 auctions the median was €40,68, across 135 fixed-price sales €51,92. Fixed price therefore fetched about 28 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €34,37 and €61,21, with a median of €45,47. 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 €23,42. Offers well below €14,05 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 €54,15 (235), German €37,82 (11). English fetches about 43 % 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.
