Exquisite Collection didn't earn its name for just the product's autographs and memorabilia cards. While those were the marks that made it such a landmark brand, it also helped lift the other parts of the product to a special place—including veteran base cards and their handful of parallels.
Veterans in 2006-07 Upper Deck Exquisite Collection Basketball have just 225 numbered base cards. They're joined by three levels of parallels: /25 Gold, four different 1/1 Printing Plates and 1/1 Black Rainbow, which is where this tremendous Michael Jordan lands. The popularity of these cards is very strong today as they seldom come up for sale, particuarly the 1/1s, which are often tucked away in collections.
Everything Exquisite Basketball carries clout, especially when top names are included. None are bigger than MJ who helped shape the line and has been a huge reason for its continued relevance and top-tier status.
The certification number on this card has been checked against the third-party grader's online database and is active as of 03/02/2026.
