Michael Jordan Bulls Rookie Card Graded Gem Mint 10 Sells for $76,000
It's hard to ask for much more from a basketball trading card than the Michael Jordan one that sold through Goldin Auctions on Saturday.
The card went for $76,000.
All it takes is one look at the description on the auction website to understand why it is so valuable.

The 1986/87 Fleer #57 card is a rookie card that was graded Gem Mint 10 by PSA. That grade, the highest awarded by PSA, is given out to less than 2 percent of all cards submitted.
That would make the card quite valuable even if it were of a marginal All-Star. This just so happens to be a card of the one and only Michael Jordan.
The Last Dance documentary released earlier in 2020 reminded another generation of His Airness' greatness, which resulted in six championships, countless memorable moments, a sneaker powerhouse and a largely accepted GOAT status.
GOATs sell cards, especially when they are in near-perfect condition.
