The jersey that 49ers great Joe Montana wore in Super Bowl XIX and Super Bowl XXIII just sold for a new record at auction, going for $1,212,000, according to Goldin Auctions.
The jersey sold on Goldin Auctions last week after spending nearly two weeks up for auction. The $1.2 million jersey shattered the previous record for a football jersey sold at auction, previously held by one of Tom Brady’s 2021 jerseys that he wore while playing for the Buccaneers. That jersey fetched $480,000 in January 2022. The Montana jersey includes a handwritten note from the Hall of Famer.
Montana wore the jersey when the 49ers beat Dan Marino and the Dolphins in Super Bowl XIX in January 1985, a game in which Montana was named MVP after throwing for 331 yards and three touchdowns and rushing for another score.
