A PSA 10 here is worth about $3,600, above the limit of PSA Standard. PSA would move it up to Super Express at $349.00. The verdict includes this.

In the last 7 days, 11 PSA 10s, 9 PSA 9s and 7 PSA 8s sold.

PSA 10s are 35% of this card’s PSA 9 and 10 sales. Owners sell their best copies, so this is not your chance of a 10.

Which grader’s 10 sells best

A PSA 10 sells for 4.7× a CGC 10 of this card. PSA has the most sales, 441. The verdict uses PSA.

PSA 10$3,600441 sales

CGC 10$77468 sales

After each grader’s base fee for that value, shipping and selling fees, a 10 nets $2,764 from PSA, $641 from CGC. Turnaround and resale demand differ too; check the grader board on Grading costs.

Already have a PSA 9?

Crack it and send the raw card again, or sell the 9 as it is. A miss pays a second grading fee and usually comes back a 9 again.

Chance the resubmission comes back a 10 %

Cracking pays if that chance is at least 3.2%. At 15%: +$298 versus selling the 9 for a net $312.

A card that graded 9 once is less likely to get a 10 than a fresh copy, so set this lower than you would for one. Cracking a slab can also damage the card.
