A PSA 10 currently sells for about €3.143,74, raw the card sits at €57,86 — 54,3× as much. Of 3.094 copies already graded, 0 % received a 10 and 17 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €201,41 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 66 auctions the median was €37,59, across 146 fixed-price sales €43,19. Fixed price therefore fetched about 15 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €26,32 and €52,47, with a median of €37,63. 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 €20,00. Offers well below €12,00 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.
