A PSA 10 currently sells for about €8.134,12, raw the card sits at €147,20 — 55,3× as much. Of 846 copies already graded, 3 % received a 10 and 18 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €1.328,02 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 45 auctions the median was €49,99, across 118 fixed-price sales €77,02. Fixed price therefore fetched about 54 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €40,34 and €104,31, with a median of €62,24. 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 €22,71. Offers well below €13,63 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: English €74,14 (253), German €70,38 (13). The difference is small — language barely matters here.

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.
