A PSA 10 currently sells for about €1.030,06, raw the card sits at €20,15 — 51,1× as much. Of 544 copies already graded, 9 % received a 10 and 36 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €288,90 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 55 auctions the median was €13,25, across 131 fixed-price sales €9,99. Auctions therefore fetched about 33 % more — worth it mainly for sought-after cards with several bidders.

Half of all sales fell between €4,48 and €31,21, with a median of €8,72. 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 €2,63. Offers well below €1,58 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 €15,83 (11), English €8,11 (145). French fetches about 95 % 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.
