- PSA 9: no sales in the last 7 days, so the verdict uses the longer-run price of $358 from 77 sales, last on Oct 30.
- Older card: raw prices often include played copies, and PSA 10s are scarcer. Judge by the grade your copy can realistically reach.
In the last 7 days, 4 PSA 8s sold. PSA 10 last sold on Sep 18 and PSA 9 last sold on Oct 30.
PSA 10s are 32% of this card’s PSA 9 and 10 sales. Owners sell their best copies, so this is not your chance of a 10.
