A PSA 10 currently sells for about €4.895,36, raw the card sits at €71,22 — 68,7× as much. Of 2.060 copies already graded, 2 % received a 10 and 20 % a 9. Mathematically, submitting returns €422,72 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 83 auctions the median was €40,68, across 135 fixed-price sales €51,92. Fixed price therefore fetched about 28 % more — for this card patience with a set price is the better route.

Half of all sales fell between €34,19 and €61,21, with a median of €46,36. 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 €22,46. Offers well below €13,48 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 €55,96 (246), German €32,93 (12). English fetches about 70 % 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.
