A PSA 10 currently sells for about €181,76, raw the card sits at €15,61 — 11,6× as much. Of 20.703 copies already graded, 35 % received a 10 and 53 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €80,50 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 172 auctions the median was €14,08, across 513 fixed-price sales €16,00. Fixed price therefore fetched about 14 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €13,02 and €17,51, with a median of €14,99. 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 €10,00. Offers well below €6,00 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 €17,09 (40), French €15,78 (129), English €14,03 (391). Italian fetches about 55 % 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.
