A PSA 10 currently sells for about €123,60, raw the card sits at €12,08 — 10,2× as much. Of 4.786 copies already graded, 41 % received a 10 and 44 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €65,30 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 210 auctions the median was €10,68, across 295 fixed-price sales €12,92. Fixed price therefore fetched about 21 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €9,36 and €14,66, with a median of €11,63. 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 €7,44. Offers well below €4,46 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 €13,58 (16), Italian €13,55 (32), French €11,38 (32). German fetches about 22 % 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.
