A PSA 10 currently sells for about €193,03, raw the card sits at €55,99 — 3,4× as much. Of 28.181 copies already graded, 55 % received a 10 and 39 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €126,91 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 269 auctions the median was €28,11, across 650 fixed-price sales €30,06. There is no meaningful difference — what matters here is how fast you want to sell.

Half of all sales fell between €21,95 and €31,39, with a median of €26,26. 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 €18,82. Offers well below €11,29 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 €33,71 (20), German €29,81 (47), French €27,06 (59). Italian fetches about 30 % 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.
