More history surrounding Michael Jordan. Graded PSA 9 and with a Gem Mint 10 autograph, the signed 1986–87 Fleer Michael Jordan rookie card sold through Pharrell Williams’ Joopiter auction house for $2.5 million—making it the most expensive Jordan rookie card ever sold and the third‑highest overall Jordan card in history.⁠ ⁠ The card’s auction began at $2 million and drew a single bid before closing; Joopiter applied a 25 percent buyer’s premium to reach the final sale price. It’s the first of nine cards Michael Jordan signed at his Florida golf course in 2024 to be sold publicly.⁠ ⁠ The only Jordan card to sell for more remains a unique 2003–04 1-of-1 Upper Deck Ultimate Collection Logoman patch autograph card, which fetched $2.92 million by Goldin in June 2024.⁠
