A PSA 10 currently sells for about €106,89, raw the card sits at €5,12 — 20,9× as much. Of 2.462 copies already graded, 38 % received a 10 and 46 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €55,40 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.

Half of all sales fell between €3,54 and €4,87, with a median of €4,37. 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 €3,00. Offers well below €1,80 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: German €5,00 (26), English €4,65 (202), French €4,21 (10). German fetches about 19 % 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.
