PSA has graded 50 copies. Where they landed:
Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 8.0% 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 $16.10£12.12€14.18 on average against $102.71£77.30€90.45 for the card plus $79.99£60.20€70.44 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $86.61£65.19€76.28, so a copy is worth more raw.
2 of the 5 grades priced above had no sales at that grade, so the figure is modelled from the grades that did rather than observed.

What is a PSA 10 Galvantula worth?
A PSA 10 Galvantula from XY - Steam Siege sells for $47.04. 4.5% 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 Galvantula from XY - Steam Siege worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $16.23 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $2.72 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $86.48.
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 $47.04£35.40€41.43. 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.
