What makes this card so special is the unparalleled significance of the two athletes it features. Michael Jordan, widely considered the greatest basketball player of all time, and LeBron James, a generational talent who has spent over two decades redefining the sport, together on one autographed card is a collector’s dream. The 2003-04 season was LeBron’s rookie year, making this one of his earliest and most desirable signed cards.

The card’s scarcity in high grades further adds to its appeal. According to population reports, there are only 4 PSA 10s, 7 PSA 9s, and 1 PSA 8 in existence. On the BGS side, there is only 1 BGS 10, 4 BGS 9.5s (including the one that just sold), 8 BGS 9s, and 1 BGS 8. With fewer than 30 copies graded across both companies and only a handful at elite levels, it’s no surprise that demand has continued to skyrocket.
