A PSA 10 currently sells for about €83,15, raw the card sits at €9,97 — 8,3× as much. Of 1.402 copies already graded, 18 % received a 10 and 49 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €30,60 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 40 auctions the median was €6,51, across 133 fixed-price sales €9,36. Fixed price therefore fetched about 44 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €6,57 and €10,42, with a median of €8,38. 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 €5,19. Offers well below €3,11 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: English €8,30 (115), Italian €6,98 (15), German €6,24 (13). English fetches about 33 % 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.
