PSA has graded 70 copies. Where they landed:
Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 25.7% 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 $60.94£45.67€53.17 on average against $102.99£77.18€89.87 for the card plus $79.99£59.94€69.80 at Regular, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That loses $42.05£31.51€36.70, so a copy is worth more raw.
1 of the 3 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 Professor Elm worth?

Is Professor Elm from Japanese Gold, Silver, to a New World... worth grading?
On the numbers, no. The average submission is worth $60.94 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $3 for a raw copy plus $99.99 to send it through PSA Regular, so it loses $42.05.
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 $198.05£148.42€172.82. 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.
