The list of Michael Jordan cards is vast. But if you’re looking for affordable Jordan cards, that takes some extra work. Here are 25 cool and notable MJs that won’t break the bank.

All of the cards on the following list have a high book value of less than $23 in the Beckett Price Guide (as of April 2020).

1989-90 Fleer Stickers Michael Jordan #3

It’s tough finding early Michael Jordan cards from the 1980s that are affordable. Despite being plentiful, the first three Fleer Stickers are on the pricey side now. The 1989-90 Fleer Super Star Sticker is on the more expensive side of this list, but it’s about the best you can do for ’80s MJs.

1990-91 Hoops Sam Vincent #223

Sorry, Sam Vincent. This card isn’t interesting because of your presence. It’s not even so much that Michael Jordan’s on it, either. It’s the fact that there’s Michael Jordan wearing a #12 jersey. Jordan’s jersey went missing before the Bulls’ Valentine’s Day game in 1990 so a quick fix was needed. This card is a lasting piece of Michael Jordan history.

This card is found in 1990-91 Hoops Series 1 packs. The photo was changed for the later High Series packs. So, technically, it’s a short print compared to most of the other cards in the original run but it’s not close to being rare.

1990-91 SkyBox Michael Jordan #41

It’s not so much the front that makes the 1990-91 SkyBox Michael Jordan so interesting. It’s the back. This is the first card to show MJ playing his other sport, golf. The gear, the swing, the footwork — it’s all here, equal parts odd and amazing.
