This 1986-87 Fleer Michael Jordan rookie card (#57) is graded Mint 9 by Beckett Grading Services (BGS), featuring subgrades of 9.5 for Centering, 9 for Corners, 9 for Surface, and 8.5 for Edges. Widely regarded as a blue-chip sports asset and a cornerstone piece for any serious collection, this card showcases exceptional eye appeal with near-perfect centering—a particularly rare attribute for this condition-sensitive issue. The iconic red, white, and blue borders framing Jordan's classic rookie-era action shot remain exceptionally bright and clean.
The 1986-87 Fleer basketball set marks a monumental chapter in hobby history, representing the triumphant return of licensed basketball cards after a four-year production drought. Of the examples submitted to Beckett, 1,945 have achieved this Mint 9 grade, with only a small fraction of the total population grading higher due to the era's frequent print defects, centering variances, and edge chipping. This card stands as a premier preservation of basketball's most celebrated rookie issue.Show more
