A PSA 10 currently sells for about €224,27, raw the card sits at €22,38 — 10,0× as much. Of 189 copies already graded, 34 % received a 10 and 39 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €434,67 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 9 auctions the median was €8,09, across 35 fixed-price sales €10,21. Fixed price therefore fetched about 26 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €5,69 and €15,63, with a median of €8,63. 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 €3,88. Offers well below €2,33 are typically fakes, mislabelled cards or a different variant — ask for photos of all four borders and a close-up of the surface.

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.
