However that doesn’t really change that people in the market decided to bid the card up to 510, which sounds reasonable for a card like this.

In 1996 MM double impact, there are 2 tiers: first 4 are more valuable and *roughly* comparable to each other, last 2 are cheaper and different. A factor influencing the particular value of each of the first 4 is how many of that card are currently on/were on the market recently (generally eBay). Since very little of the surfer/cap surfaced lately, I’d say >400 might be reasonable.
I agree that $400-$500 seems reasonable these days, but can definitely see it going higher in today's insane market. Used to be, you could pick up cards #5 and #6 for between $25 and $50, and the others for around $100-$200. I can easily see the Psylocke or Rogue going for something astronomical. I mean, hell, the Psylocke base has crossed $200 at times.
