A PSA 10 currently sells for about €124,26, raw the card sits at €6,24 — 19,9× as much. Of 6.308 copies already graded, 55 % received a 10 and 32 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €80,86 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 75 auctions the median was €6,00, across 212 fixed-price sales €5,99. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between €4,38 and €6,99, with a median of €5,50. 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 €3,61. Offers well below €2,17 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 €8,90 (10), French €6,11 (64), German €5,99 (33). Italian fetches about 78 % 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.
