A PSA 10 currently sells for about €134,30, raw the card sits at €1,66 — 80,9× as much. Of 4.257 copies already graded, 39 % received a 10 and 43 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €70,30 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 93 auctions the median was €12,03, across 230 fixed-price sales €16,22. Fixed price therefore fetched about 35 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €11,95 and €18,00, with a median of €14,65. 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 €8,91. Offers well below €5,35 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 €16,65 (37), German €15,89 (25), Italian €15,37 (12). French fetches about 29 % 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.
