A PSA 10 currently sells for about €9.327,18, raw the card sits at €128,50 — 72,6× as much. Of 2.984 copies already graded, 4 % received a 10 and 26 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €1.004,76 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 87 auctions the median was €76,26, across 61 fixed-price sales €99,90. Fixed price therefore fetched about 31 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €27,10 and €74,35, with a median of €50,00. 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 €17,50. Offers well below €10,50 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 €70,04 (19), French €53,12 (22). English 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.
