A PSA 10 currently sells for about €438,58, raw the card sits at €68,00 — 6,4× as much. Of 1.318 copies already graded, 27 % received a 10 and 38 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €233,55 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 63 auctions the median was €41,50, across 149 fixed-price sales €46,14. Fixed price therefore fetched about 11 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €33,61 and €53,57, with a median of €43,65. 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 €26,18. Offers well below €15,71 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 €45,80 (136), Japanese €26,32 (32). English fetches about 74 % 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.
