A PSA 10 currently sells for about €1.314,94, raw the card sits at €79,01 — 16,6× as much. Of 10.361 copies already graded, 13 % received a 10 and 52 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €260,88 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 46 auctions the median was €64,10, across 157 fixed-price sales €80,00. Fixed price therefore fetched about 25 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €60,24 and €85,30, with a median of €72,94. 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 €52,09. Offers well below €31,25 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 €90,66 (57), English €68,45 (107). Italian fetches about 32 % 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.
