The football is a Baden brand "Collector Series" football, that is Miami branded (has the team logo on it). The football is half 'classic brown' leather and half white leather (which is where the signatures are, making them more visible). The signatures are all in permanent marker (Sharpee) and most include both the name and jersey number. It has about 100 player signatures. Many of these players played in and won a National Championship (January 2002), and 13 of them went on to play in the NFL. The football has been in a display case since it was signed, and is in excellent condition.

Hi Korey,
Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
Do you know the timing of when the team signed this football? Did you personally acquire the signatures or did you purchase it previously signed? If you didn't see the players sign this, have you verified that the signatures are authentic?
I apologize for all of these questions, but with the sports-collectibles market so red-hot, these small details can make a significant difference to the value.
Thanks to confirm, at your convenience.
Delia
