CliveGrading odds
CGC has graded 956 copies. Where they landed:
CGC Pristine 1025626.8%
CGC Gem Mint 1050352.6%
CGC 9.5252.6%
CGC 99710.1%
CGC 8.5363.8%
Lower394.1%
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 90.1% 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 $22.60£16.93€19.72 on average against $102.12£76.53€89.11 for the card plus $79.99£59.94€69.80 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $79.52£59.59€69.39, so a copy is worth more raw.

On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $22.51 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $2.13 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $79.61.
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 $24.06£18.03€20.99. 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.
