CGC has graded 181 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 26.1% 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 $97.12£73.09€85.53 on average against $119.34£89.82€105.10 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $22.22£16.73€19.57, so a copy is worth more raw.

The Energy Search on this page is the Reverse Holofoil printing from Expedition, and it trades at $23.30£17.54€20.52 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 $14£10.54€12.33, PSA 8 $17.62£13.26€15.52, PSA 9 $55£41.40€48.44, CGC/BGS 9.5 $125£94.08€110.08, PSA 10 $261.80£197.04€230.56. PSA has graded 157 copies of it. 237 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Energy Search worth?
A PSA 10 Energy Search from Expedition sells for $261.80. 9.8% 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 Energy Search from Expedition worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $57.50 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $19.35 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $61.84.
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 $261.80£197.04€230.56. 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.
