A PSA 10 currently sells for about €157,44, raw the card sits at €25,87 — 6,1× as much. Of 3.837 copies already graded, 49 % received a 10 and 43 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €92,29 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 74 auctions the median was €20,25, across 302 fixed-price sales €23,36. Fixed price therefore fetched about 15 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €19,20 and €26,47, with a median of €22,43. 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 €16,72. Offers well below €10,03 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 €27,03 (58), French €26,03 (75), English €23,39 (228). Italian fetches about 34 % 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.
