10Grading odds
CGC has graded 208 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 11.7% 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 $276.09£207.80€243.14 on average against $194.27£146.22€171.09 for the card plus $149£112.14€131.22 at Express, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That clears $81.82£61.58€72.05, so grading a clean copy is worth the wait.

The Noctowl on this page is the Reverse Holofoil printing from EX Unseen Forces, and it trades at $36.57£27.52€32.21 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 $13.72£10.33€12.08, PSA 8 $44.99£33.86€39.62, PSA 9 $80.95£60.93€71.29, CGC/BGS 9.5 $89£66.99€78.38, PSA 10 $1,937£1,458€1,706. PSA has graded 128 copies of it. 154 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Noctowl worth?
A PSA 10 Noctowl from EX Unseen Forces sells for $1,937. 10.9% 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 Noctowl from EX Unseen Forces worth grading?
On the numbers, yes. The average submission is worth $263.18 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $25.27 for a raw copy plus $169 to send it through PSA Express, so it clears $68.91.
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 $1,937£1,458€1,706. 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.
