A PSA 10 currently sells for about €402,38, raw the card sits at €18,57 — 21,7× as much. Of 257 copies already graded, 18 % received a 10 and 66 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €97,56 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 27 auctions the median was €9,06, across 169 fixed-price sales €14,93. Fixed price therefore fetched about 65 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €12,03 and €17,67, with a median of €14,67. 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 €10,20. Offers well below €6,12 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: Italian €19,57 (17), English €16,56 (151). Italian fetches about 18 % 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.
