A PSA 10 currently sells for about €313,66, raw the card sits at €43,48 — 7,2× as much. Of 984 copies already graded, 19 % received a 10 and 64 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €104,06 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 61 auctions the median was €31,46, across 227 fixed-price sales €36,11. 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 €31,77 and €41,85, with a median of €36,43. 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 €28,89. Offers well below €17,33 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 €41,88 (253), German €38,29 (12). The difference is small — language barely matters here.

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.
