A PSA 10 currently sells for about €116,57, raw the card sits at €25,08 — 4,6× as much. Of 1.854 copies already graded, 40 % received a 10 and 51 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €63,27 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 55 auctions the median was €17,61, across 144 fixed-price sales €23,97. 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 €18,60 and €26,18, with a median of €21,91. 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 €15,54. Offers well below €9,32 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.
