Tom Brady's Historic $1.39M Memorabilia Gets Broken by Joe Montana
Joe Montana has taken over the Patriots' legend.
The jaw-dropping sale price of $1.515 million for Joe Montana's Super Bowl-winning jersey shattered the previous record held by Tom Brady's jersey. Brady's final game-worn jersey, donned while playing for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, set the previous benchmark at $1.39 million in November 2023. Montana's jersey, worn during the 49ers' victory over the Denver Broncos in Super Bowl XXIV, quickly surpassed that mark.
According to Treasure Trove, the high-end collectibles venture that made the record-breaking purchase, the jersey fetched a staggering $1,515,000. NBCSportsBayArea reporter Angelina Martin noted that the sale of Montana's jersey surpassed the previous record, while acknowledging that Brady's jersey might command an even higher price in the future as more examples may yet surface on the market.
Both Montana and Brady are widely regarded as the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history, with Brady often being considered the superior player. However, Montana's jersey's record-breaking sale price highlights his status as arguably the best player in San Francisco 49ers franchise history.
