Graded NM-MT+ 8.5 by Beckett (submitted by REA). Spectacular example of Michael Jordan from the 1997-1998 Skybox Metal Universe Championship Precious Metal Gems basketball series. Precious Metal Gems, often referred to as "PMGs", are amongst the most desirable parallel cards in the hobby. A number of factors contribute to this, most notably their unique aesthetic, scarcity, and condition sensitivity. Even amongst all of Jordan's cards, of which there are many, his "PMGs" are near the top in terms of value and desirability. This is a stunning card! Subgrades are 9.5 for centering, 9 for surface, 8.5 for edges, and 8 for corners. Numbered 14/50 on the reverse. A tremendous example of this rarely seen card. Opening Bid $25,000.
