10Grading odds
PSA has graded 289 copies. Where they landed:
Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 6.6% 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 $58.57£44.09€51.58 on average against $106.95£80.50€94.19 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $48.38£36.41€42.60, so a copy is worth more raw.

What is a PSA 10 Articuno worth?
A PSA 10 Articuno from Next Destinies sells for $333.71. 0.0% 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 Articuno from Next Destinies worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $26.46 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $6.96 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $80.49.
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 $333.71£251.17€293.89. 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.
