CGC has graded 822 copies. Where they landed:
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 32.2% 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 $154.67£116.41€136.21 on average against $106.99£80.53€94.22 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That clears $47.68£35.88€41.99, so grading a clean copy is worth the wait.

The Caterpie on this page is the 1st Edition printing from Neo Discovery, and it trades at $7.85£5.91€6.91 in near mint condition. The other 1 printing of the same card sits lower, which is normal: the scarcer print run always carries the premium.
Graded, it runs PSA 7 $8.50£6.40€7.49, PSA 8 $17.95£13.51€15.81, PSA 9 $30£22.58€26.42, CGC/BGS 9.5 $33£24.84€29.06, PSA 10 $429£322.89€377.81. PSA has graded 338 copies of it. 597 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Caterpie worth?
A PSA 10 Caterpie from Neo Discovery sells for $429. 35.2% 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 Caterpie from Neo Discovery worth grading?
On the numbers, yes. The average submission is worth $167.51 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $7 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it clears $60.52.
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 $429£322.89€377.81. 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.
