Ultra-Rare Allen Iverson Card Hits Auction Block, Gets Six-Figure Bid

A super-rare Allen Iverson card just hit the auction block, but it could very well be out of most collectors’ price range … ’cause someone’s already bid $150K!!

TMZ Sports has learned the 1997 Skybox E-X 2001 Essential Credentials Now Iverson piece went up for auction at Heritage Auctions on New Year’s Day … and it’s already received an aggressive six-figure bid.

It’s a huge number … especially considering the previous record for an Iverson card sale, according to HA, was $79,200.

That’s how coveted the ’97 card is to collectors.

Only three of the nearly 3-decade old cards were ever produced … and only one has ever gone up for sale.

The card — which features Iverson in a Sixers jersey on the front and his 1996-97 rookie year stats on the back — is marked No. 2 of three … and it has a PSA 5 grade, meaning the card shows some signs of wear.
