CGC has graded 561 copies. Where they landed:
CGC Pristine 10122.1%
CGC Gem Mint 106611.8%
CGC 9.5132.3%
CGC 914626.0%
CGC 8.511220.0%
Lower21237.8%
These are CGC grades. The prices above are for PSA slabs, and a CGC 10 is not the same grade as a PSA 10, so read the two as separate markets rather than one.
Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 37.8% of copies reach a 10, which is why the top price is the wrong number to plan around. Weighting each grade’s PSA price by these odds, a submission is worth $350.92£262.98€306.21 on average against $117.49£88.05€102.52 for the card plus $79.99£59.94€69.80 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That clears $233.43£174.93€203.69, so grading a clean copy is worth the wait.
1 of the 5 grades priced above had no sales at that grade, so the figure is modelled from the grades that did rather than observed.

What is a PSA 10 Ampharos worth?
A PSA 10 Ampharos from Japanese Awakening Legends sells for $720.22. 37.8% of the copies PSA has graded came back a 10, so that price is the best case rather than the one a submission should expect.
Is Ampharos from Japanese Awakening Legends worth grading?
On the numbers, yes. The average submission is worth $350.92 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $17.50 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it clears $233.43.
Condition does most of the work below the surface. A copy with soft corners or a print line off centre trades well under the market price shown here, and a copy clean enough to grade trades well above it, which is why the PSA 10 sits at $720.22£539.73€628.46. Before you value your own copy, look at the corners under a light and check the centring on the back, where most cards give themselves away.
