A PSA 10 currently sells for about €73,90, raw the card sits at €3,00 — 24,6× as much. Of 743 copies already graded, 35 % received a 10 and 42 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €43,52 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 5 auctions the median was €2,34, across 53 fixed-price sales €3,64. Fixed price therefore fetched about 56 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €2,25 and €5,86, with a median of €3,49. 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 €1,43. Offers well below €0,86 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 €2,71 (47), German €2,22 (19). English fetches about 22 % 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.
