- PSA 10: no sales in the last 7 days, so the verdict uses the longer-run price of $130 from 8 sales, last on Oct 12.
- PSA 9: no sales in the last 7 days, so the verdict uses the longer-run price of $29.00 from 5 sales, last on Oct 24.
- No PSA 8 price qualifies, so a copy that misses a 10 is assumed to grade PSA 9.
No PSA 10, 9 or 8 sold in the last 7 days. PSA 10 last sold on Oct 12, PSA 9 last sold on Oct 24 and PSA 8 last sold on Apr 29.
PSA 10s are 62% 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 2.1× a CGC 10 of this card. PSA has the most sales, 8. The verdict uses PSA.
PSA 10$1308 sales
CGC 10$63.038 sales
After each grader’s base fee for that value, shipping and selling fees, a 10 nets $42.38 from PSA, $24.27 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.
%
Cracking pays if that chance is at least 80%. At 15%: −$57 versus selling the 9 for a net $24.76.
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.
Before you set your odds: what a PSA 10 needs
- CenteringAbout 55/45 to 60/40 or better on the front, 75/25 on the back.
- CornersFour sharp corners with no rounding or fraying.
- EdgesNo whitening or chipping, especially on the back.
- SurfaceNo scratches, print lines, dents or holo wear under a light.
