A PSA 10 currently sells for about €535,98, raw the card sits at €13,80 — 38,8× as much. Of 1.083 copies already graded, 12 % received a 10 and 30 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €141,02 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 153 auctions the median was €5,58, across 273 fixed-price sales €8,48. Fixed price therefore fetched about 52 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €5,24 and €10,47, with a median of €7,44. 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 €3,65. Offers well below €2,19 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 €6,83 (14), English €6,13 (340). German fetches about 11 % 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.
