Multi-time Ballon d'Or Winner and All-Time Leading International Scorer · Soccer / Football - Global

Real Madrid / Manchester United / Portugal National Team

Modern Era - circa 2015-2023

Soccer Ball

Fair/Good - The ball shows heavy wear and surface abrasions; the signature is clear but slightly interrupted by texture

Moderate - Ronaldo is a prolific signer but the demand significantly exceeds the supply

Overall Assessment

A strong, recognizable example of a global icon's signature on a relevant, though used, piece of equipment.

Likely authentic - high confidence based on flow and common motion patterns

Stylized monogram combining a 'C' and an 'R' with a loop that often represents his number 7

Consistent slant to the right, rapid ink flow with no hesitation, and a distinctive '7' integration in the flourishes

Black permanent marker (Sharpie-style) on a synthetic soccer ball surface

Used or weathered multi-panel soccer ball with visible scuffing and 'R' logo branding

$400 - $800 USD (Value significantly lower without COA due to high forgery volume)

Matches post-2010 examples where the signature became more abbreviated and stylized

Look for the fluid 'C' transition and the specific upward flick at the end of the 'R' loop

Beckett (BAS), PSA/DNA, or James Spence Authentication (JSA)

No significant red flags observed; the ink shows natural absorption into the ball's scuffs

Valuable to have a photo or video of the signing given the high market value of his autograph

Signed during the peak or late-peak of one of the greatest footballing careers in history

Stable to appreciating; values spike during major international tournaments or career milestones

Excellent long-term hold as he is a foundational figure in sports history

Lionel Messi, Neymar Jr., David Beckham

Keep in a UV-protected acrylic ball case to prevent ink fading and leather drying

Ronaldo is known to sign very quickly and often incorporates his 'CR7' brand identity into the pen strokes
