- PSA 10: only 1 sale in the last 7 days, so the verdict uses the longer-run price of $134 from 103 sales, last on Nov 3.
- PSA 9: only 1 sale in the last 7 days, so the verdict uses the longer-run price of $23.55 from 30 sales, last on Nov 2.
- No PSA 8 price qualifies, so a copy that misses a 10 is assumed to grade PSA 9.
- Promos come in stamped and plain versions. Check that the sales below match your exact copy.
In the last 7 days, 1 PSA 10 and 1 PSA 9 sold. PSA 8 last sold on Jul 19.
PSA 10s are 77% 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 4.9× a CGC 10 of this card. PSA has the most sales, 103. The verdict uses PSA.
PSA 10$134103 sales
CGC 10$27.6056 sales
After each grader’s base fee for that value, shipping and selling fees, a 10 nets $45.76 from PSA, −$6.46 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 73%. At 15%: −$56 versus selling the 9 for a net $20.03.
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.
