A PSA 10 currently sells for about €61,07, raw the card sits at €6,06 — 10,1× as much. Of 983 copies already graded, 46 % received a 10 and 46 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €40,14 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 34 auctions the median was €4,36, across 161 fixed-price sales €5,49. Fixed price therefore fetched about 26 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €4,49 and €6,46, with a median of €5,27. 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 €3,68. Offers well below €2,21 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: French €7,46 (10), English €5,37 (145), Italian €4,63 (10). French fetches about 66 % 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.
