A PSA 10 currently sells for about €47,91, raw the card sits at €4,09 — 11,7× as much. Of 1.788 copies already graded, 46 % received a 10 and 44 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €33,09 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 46 auctions the median was €3,38, across 189 fixed-price sales €4,38. Fixed price therefore fetched about 30 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €3,40 and €5,20, with a median of €4,19. 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 €2,79. Offers well below €1,67 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 €4,47 (25), English €3,71 (141), German €2,64 (20). French fetches about 69 % 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.
