- Lot Description
Expectations were high in the City of Brotherly Love when ABA legend Julius Erving first put on a 76ers uniform in the fall of 1976, Three trips to the NBA Finals in his first six years yielded zero titles, however, leaving the notoriously brutal Philly fan base at wits’ end. Before the 1982-83 season, the 76ers acquired star center Moses Malone from the Rockets, giving Dr. J and his solid supporting cast – Mo Cheeks, Andrew Toney, and Bobby Jones – a dominant inside presence. After winning 65 games in the regular season, the Sixers stormed through the playoffs, first sweeping the Knicks and then taking out the Bucks in five games to win the East. They went on to sweep the Lakers in The NBA Finals to complete one of the most dominating postseason runs in history.
Prior to the playoffs, Moses Malone famously guaranteed "Fo', fo', fo" (as in, three four-game sweeps to win the title). The Sixers came oh-so close, instead going "Fo', five', fo” and becoming the only NBA Champion other than the Celtics or Lakers from 1980 to 1988. It was their third title as a franchise, their second in Philly and the last time they have hoisted the coveted Larry O’Brien trophy.
Reserve guard Franklin Edwards was in his sophomore season in Philly in 1982-83. He was awarded this Philadelphia 76ers NBA Championship 14-karat gold ring. The shiny face features a .40ct-65ct round-cut diamond atop a red stone surrounded by "N.B.A. WORLD CHAMPIONS" in raised lettering. One shank has the NBA logo perched between "1983" and "DEFENSE." The other side spells out "EDWARDS 14" at the top, "FO’ FIVE FO’ 65-17", the Liberty Bell with the 76ers logo, and “PERSEVERE” on the bottom. Stamped inside the band is “LGB 14k”. The size 10 ring remains in near mint or better condition.
