When we did our Top 10 Most Expensive Jerseys sold by Classic Auctions a couple of weeks ago, we unfortunately missed 3 important jerseys that should have been included.

Here is an updated version of the impressive list of game-worn jerseys sold by Classic Auctions over the last 15 years.  We decided to keep the original list and simply add the three jerseys we had left out.  We now have a Top 13!  All of them were sold for more than $45,000 us.

1. Paul Henderson "The Goal" 1972 Canada-Russia Series Game-Worn Jersey

Game-worn jerseys are not made of gold and diamonds.  Most of the time, they are in a pretty bad shape.  Sometimes they even smell bad… but they are still one of the most wanted collectibles out there.

Jersey collectors know that when you are buying a game-worn jersey, you are actually buying the feeling that the player had when he wore it on the ice.  You are buying the emotions.  You are buying the impregnated sweat and blood that reflects what it means to play professional sports.  And some jerseys have more to say.

Here’s a list of the 10 most expensive game-worn jerseys ever sold in a Classic Auctions’ online auction.
