A PSA 10 currently sells for about €212,92, raw the card sits at €13,04 — 16,3× as much. Of 4.920 copies already graded, 28 % received a 10 and 42 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €86,75 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 62 auctions the median was €6,34, across 190 fixed-price sales €8,77. Fixed price therefore fetched about 38 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €5,65 and €10,58, with a median of €7,48. 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 €4,00. Offers well below €2,40 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 €8,67 (87), English €7,44 (102), French €7,32 (12). Italian fetches about 33 % 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.
