Summary

  • A 2003 Upper Deck Exquisite Collection dual Logoman card featuring Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan sold for $3.172 million USD at Heritage Auctions on December 19
  • The one-of-one, PSA 6-graded card set a new world record for the most expensive unsigned basketball card ever sold and ranks as the seventh-most valuable basketball card in history
  • This sale follows the record-breaking $12.9 million USD sale of a dual-signed 2007-08 version of the same card in August

A 2003 Upper Deck Exquisite Collection dual Logoman card featuring Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan just hammered down for $3.172 million USD via Heritage Auctions, instantly entering the record books as one of the most valuable basketball cards ever.

The one-of-one card, graded PSA 6, carries game-used NBA logo patches from both legends and comes from Exquisite’s debut season, a watershed moment that effectively birthed the modern high-end card era. This sale now ranks as the seventh-most expensive basketball card on record while also becoming one of the priciest individual Kobe and MJ pieces, despite the card being unsigned.

Heritage’s own sports division called it “an auction record for any 2003 Upper Deck Exquisite and any unsigned basketball card”, underscoring how the hobby’s top end keeps redefining what scarcity is worth.

The sale follows the August headline where a dual-signed 2007-08 Exquisite Jordan/Bryant Logoman obliterated records at nearly $13 million USD, cementing this MJ–Kobe pairing as the definitive blue-chip asset in the card game.
