King sets Super Bowl record for longest touchdown!

1980 Oakland Raiders Super Bowl XV Championship Ring (Running Back Kenny King). Super Bowl XV was played on January 25, 1981, at the Louisiana Superdome in New Orleans, where the Oakland Raiders defeated the Philadelphia Eagles 27‑10 to win their second Super Bowl title. Raiders quarterback Jim Plunkett threw three touchdown passes, including an eighty‑yarder to running back Kenny King, which at the time was the longest scoring play in Super Bowl history and gave Oakland a 14‑0 first‑quarter lead. King's reception and run were pivotal in setting the tone for the game and establishing early momentum for the Raiders. In the contest, King finished with two receptions for 93 yards and the one touchdown. Oakland's balanced attack and opportunistic defense, which recorded three interceptions, helped secure the victory for the Raiders.

Two large genuine diamonds at center represent those Super Bowl Championships, while smaller diamonds form a figural football and the eastern and western borders. North and south feature raised text reporting, "Oakland Raiders, World Champions."

Left shank provides the logo and final score of Super Bowl XV along with the AFC logo, the "1980" vintage and the motto "Pride." Right shank identifies the ring's owner as "King, O Back 33" above a Raiders logo, the word "Poise" and another "1980." Stamping at interior band indicates "14K" gold construction. Size ten and a half (10.5). Total weight forty-two grams (42 g.). Proud wear evident, but ring presents beautifully.


Guide Value or Estimate: $40,000 - up.

Auction Type
Signature Internet Extended Bid: These Auctions are presented via catalog and online. Bidding is taken through our website or via phone. There are two phases of bidding during this type of auction: 1) Normal bidding: Bids are taken up until 10 PM CT the night the auction closes. 2) 30 Minute Ending: On a lot-by-lot basis, starting at 10:00 PM CT, any person who has bid on the lot previously may continue to bid on that lot until there are no more bids for 30 minutes. For example, if you bid on a lot during Normal Bidding, you could participate during Extended Bidding for that lot, but not on lots you did not bid on previously. If a bid was placed at 10:15, the new end time for that lot would become 10:45. If no other bids were placed before 10:45, the lot would close. If you are the high bidder on a lot, changing your bid will not extend the bidding during the 30 Minute Ending phase (only a bid from another bidder will extend bidding). If you are the only bidder at 10 PM, you will automatically win the lot at 10:30. Important: After normal bidding ends, you must be signed-on to the Heritage site to see the bidding option on lots where you qualify for extended bidding and you must be on an individual lot page to reflect the accurate time remaining for that particular lot.
