A PSA 10 currently sells for about €167,39, raw the card sits at €20,35 — 8,2× as much. Of 463 copies already graded, 17 % received a 10 and 30 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €89,98 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 41 auctions the median was €9,69, across 85 fixed-price sales €12,24. Fixed price therefore fetched about 26 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €8,89 and €15,56, with a median of €11,24. 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 €6,74. Offers well below €4,04 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 €12,88 (103), French €12,82 (31). The difference is small — language barely matters here.

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.
