10Grading odds
PSA has graded 799 copies. Where they landed:
Why the verdict weights the odds
Only 52.7% 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 $1,740£1,297€1,556 on average against $509£379.54€455.32 for the card plus $349£260.24€312.19 at Super Express, the cheapest level PSA will insure it at. That clears $1,231£917.69€1,101, so grading a clean copy is worth the wait.

What moves the price of this card
The Raikou on this page is the only printing from Japanese Split Earth, and it trades at no recorded price in near mint condition. Only one printing of this card was produced, so there is no cheaper version to confuse it with.
Graded, it runs PSA 7 $216.31£161.30€193.50, PSA 8 $362£269.93€323.82, PSA 9 $389.63£290.53€348.54, CGC/BGS 9.5 $429£319.89€383.76, PSA 10 $2,999£2,236€2,683. PSA has graded 799 copies of it. 524 completed sales are on file.
What is a PSA 10 Raikou worth?
A PSA 10 Raikou from Japanese Split Earth sells for $2,999. 52.7% 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 Raikou from Japanese Split Earth worth grading?
On the numbers, yes. The average submission is worth $1,740 with every grade weighted by how often this card comes back at it, against $140 for a raw copy plus $369 to send it through PSA Super Express, so it clears $1,231.
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 $2,999£2,236€2,683. 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.
