Rare Michael Jordan Cards That Can Fetch You a Six-Figure Amount

Michael Jordan retired from the sport of basketball in 2003. However, years later, he still remains an influential figure. The Chicago Bulls legend left behind a legacy of incredible achievements on the court and off it too. He also helped popularize the NBA worldwide to new NBA fans. Jordan’s achievements have been famously immortalized into trading cards.

Which is the most valuable Michael Jordan card?

A card having Michael Jordan’s name and face on it could itself be an attractive option. Rare Jordan cards include some rookies, autographs, and memorabilia cards. Some of these cards could fetch a fortune. A rare edition card that also included pieces of match worn fabric could be worth six figures.

A Winfield man named Chris Salcedo discovered one such card a few months ago. He chanced upon the card while rummaging through a box of cards that he purchased on eBay for $400. To Salcedo’s astonishment, he found a rare Jordan card from the 2002-01 ‘Upper Deck Pros & Prospects Signature Jersey Series’.

The card also contained a part of Jordan’s match worn jersey along with his signature. Salcedo had the card, jersey piece, and signature professionally scored. He has now put it up for auction via Golden Auctions. A collector informed Salcedo that the card is worth an estimated $200,000. Salcedo reckons that the card could sell in the low-to-mid-six figures.

Are Jordan cards available on eBay?

Salcedo opted to auction the card via Golden Auctions, which has experience with selling high-end Jordan cards. However, cards can be sold, auctioned, and bought on eBay too. eBay is an online auction and shopping website where businesses and people buy and sell varied goods and services worldwide. The website is free to use for buyers.

Jordan started his NBA career in 1984 with the Bulls as the third overall pick of the 1984 NBA draft. A six-time NBA champion, Jordan commands an extensive amount of respect among NBA fans. Jordan’s worldwide fanbase and other collectors collect such cards in eBay auctions that also make thousands of dollars.
