A PSA 10 currently sells for about €196,00, raw the card sits at €43,59 — 4,5× as much. Of 3.228 copies already graded, 44 % received a 10 and 47 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €110,26 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 81 auctions the median was €39,35, across 184 fixed-price sales €47,63. Fixed price therefore fetched about 21 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €36,82 and €51,15, with a median of €43,07. 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 €30,36. Offers well below €18,22 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 €48,13 (16), English €41,85 (172). Italian fetches about 15 % 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.
