1986 TOPPS #161 JERRY RICE ROOKIE - PSA GEM MINT 10

Offered here is the iconic 1986 Topps #161 Jerry Rice rookie card given a perfect GEM MINT 10 grade by PSA. A perfect example from the NFL’s greatest wide receiver is especially difficult to come by, being that there are only 58 in PSA’s Population Report at the time of this listing. Rice’s name can be seen across virtually every single major receiving category in the NFL’s record books for both regular and postseason stats. These categories include receptions (1,549), receiving yards (22,895), touchdown receptions (197), all-purpose yards (23,540), touchdowns (208), single-season receiving yards (1,848), seasons with 1,000 or more receiving yards (14 w/ 11 consecutive), games with at least 100 receiving yards (76), & consecutive games with at least one reception (274). With statistical feats as such, it is clear why a GEM MINT 10 example of Rice’s rookie card can be considered among the most highly sought-after cards in the market.  This example features perfect symmetry, sharp corners and beautiful coloring, all making up for its GEM MINT 10 appearance. A truly beautiful rookie card from the First Ballot Hall of Famer.
