A PSA 10 currently sells for about €104,01, raw the card sits at €4,62 — 22,5× as much. Of 14.474 copies already graded, 45 % received a 10 and 43 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €58,12 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 67 auctions the median was €4,00, across 188 fixed-price sales €5,30. Fixed price therefore fetched about 32 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €4,16 and €6,90, with a median of €5,20. 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 €3,25. Offers well below €1,95 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 €6,99 (69), French €5,20 (149), Italian €4,81 (10). German fetches about 58 % 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.
