A PSA 10 currently sells for about €100,49, raw the card sits at €13,95 — 7,2× as much. Of 2.699 copies already graded, 36 % received a 10 and 49 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €50,28 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 47 auctions the median was €11,39, across 139 fixed-price sales €16,40. Fixed price therefore fetched about 44 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €12,08 and €18,59, with a median of €15,22. 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 €10,35. Offers well below €6,21 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: Italian €17,87 (17), English €13,24 (110), German €11,97 (21). Italian fetches about 49 % 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.
