We all know just how valuable Michael Jordan basketball and baseball cards are in today`s card market. His 1986 fleer rookie card by itself can fetch an easy $1000.00 dollars on a bad day. Jordan was and is the best basketball player ever without a doubt. So what is the big deal about getting one of his cards professionally graded?
Plenty, that`s what. Getting a card graded puts it in a class above all others. It completely seals the card forever, and depending on the grade, makes it worth a ton more than if not graded at all. So a player of Jordan`s caliber just sky-rockets a typical card into a must have.
The grading system is based mainly on the condition of the card(centering, corners, and creasing if any). So if a typical Jordan card like a 1990 fleer books for $2.00 dollars, graded it would be worth around possibly $10.00. The highest you can get would be a pristine condition gem mint 10. 10 being the highest and 1 being the lowest.
Beckett grading system (or bgs), is perhaps the most trusted name in the grading card business. They have been grading Jordan cards since its first inception. Other card companies grade as well and can be trusted just as much. So go with whatever Jordan graded card has the best price and of course grade.

Michael Jordan is the best and most exciting human being to ever play the game of basketball. The way he dribbled and had his opponents going in the wrong direction, should have drew a fine. His legacy will be forever remembered as his "Airness" and for good reason. He literally flew when he went up to dunk on an opponent.
No matter what team you pulled for in the NBA, you just had to cheer for Jordan as he would leave you in awe with his blasting and everlasting slam dunks. He knew no fear on the basketball court, as all of his unbreakable records and NBA titles will show.
So with that being said, it is no wonder why his NBA basketball cards are worth so much money these days. His 1986 Fleer rookie card sky-rocketed to over $1000.00 dollars when he was playing in his glory days. Today it books for around 600.00 dollars without professional grading.
But as soon as you can buy your next pack of cards, it can and will usually go right back up in value just as all of his cards do. An even more scarce card of Jordan`s rookie card is the sensitive 1984 Star card #101. In its hay-day it went as high as $2900.00 dollars, believe it or not. If you are lucky enough to find one, I would recommend buying it as a family heirloom!
Even if you can`t afford Air Jordan`s rookie cards, you can settle on some of his early 90`s cards as well as his insert basketball cards made by topps, fleer, or skybox. They are more affordable if you are just starting to collect Jordan, or you are just looking to add more of his cards to your collection of Jordan memorabilia.
