A PSA 10 currently sells for about €48,45, raw the card sits at €1,74 — 27,8× as much. Of 980 copies already graded, 35 % received a 10 and 49 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €28,19 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 26 auctions the median was €2,00, across 119 fixed-price sales €2,61. 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 €1,83 and €3,44, with a median of €2,20. 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 €1,25. Offers well below €0,75 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: German €4,04 (26), French €3,11 (23), English €1,68 (55). German fetches about 140 % 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.
