A PSA 10 currently sells for about €794,58, raw the card sits at €45,84 — 17,3× as much. Of 785 copies already graded, 22 % received a 10 and 41 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €295,69 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 13 auctions the median was €62,86, across 19 fixed-price sales €85,38. Fixed price therefore fetched about 36 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €42,87 and €78,94, with a median of €59,62. 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 €24,66. Offers well below €14,80 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.
