A PSA 10 currently sells for about €17,88, raw the card sits at €1,78 — 10,0× as much. Of 1.057 copies already graded, 38 % received a 10 and 47 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €14,86 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 53 auctions the median was €1,08, across 126 fixed-price sales €2,08. Fixed price therefore fetched about 93 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €1,35 and €2,49, with a median of €1,99. 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 €0,92. Offers well below €0,55 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: French €2,07 (35), English €1,56 (136), German €1,50 (21). French fetches about 38 % 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.
