"I wasn't shocked (by the price), but I was certainly surprised," Lelands president Mike Heffner told ESPN. "I know the market is headed upward, especially with rare and desirable cards such as that one, but I didn't really anticipate it. I had an inkling just feeling the performance of the other cards over the past month, it was certainly a possibility but these modern cards are definitely for real."

The card is one of only 100 ever made and was previously purchased on eBay over a decade ago where it remained in a private collection before being sold on Friday, according to the listing.
The rare item received an 8.5 grade and a 9 for the signature.
