Bids started at $25,000 on April 3, and there were 54 bids over the course of the auction.
“Michael Jordan is arguably the most iconic athlete of all-time, winning six NBA titles and two Olympic Gold medals,” Robert Edward Auctions President Brian Dwyer said in a statement. “Collectors relished a rare opportunity to own Jordan’s jersey from the 1992 Dream Team – the greatest basketball team ever assembled.”
The jersey was originally sold at a special gala charity auction held by The Michael Jordan Foundation in September 1992 for $17,500, according to REA.
A nice little return on investment.
