8Grading odds
PSA has graded 174 copies. Where they landed:
Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 9.2% 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 $98.70£73.96€86.12 on average against $119.98£89.91€104.69 for the card plus $79.99£59.94€69.80 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $21.28£15.95€18.57, so a copy is worth more raw.

What is a PSA 10 Fossil Excavation worth?
A PSA 10 Fossil Excavation from Japanese Vending Machine cards Series 1 (Blue) sells for $580.19. 10.1% 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 Fossil Excavation from Japanese Vending Machine cards Series 1 (Blue) worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $103.25 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $19.99 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $16.73.
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 $580.19£434.79€506.27. 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.
