Jesse Helt, the homeless man Miley Cyrus took to the MTV Video Music Awards two years ago, is selling her Moonman on eBay.

According to a listing on the platform, a user named jesshel_42 is selling the trophy for a starting bid of $10,000, with the opportunity to buy it now at $15,000.

“In mint condition,” read the listing. “Very rare, one of a kind. No fingerprints.”

The trophy bears the name of both Helt and Cyrus, who won the Video of the Year for her song, “Wrecking Ball.” Helt accepted the award in 2014 to raise awareness for America’s homeless youth. During his speech, where he prompted people to donate to the L.A. based charity My Friend’s Place, Cyrus was seen in tears in the audience.

TMZ reported that Helt is expecting a baby in a few months and is selling the trophy to prep for the arrival. Allegedly, he recently bought a studio apartment in Los Angeles.

The publication also reported that previously sold trophies have brought in some serious cash. Coolio’s trophy for “Gangsta’s Paradise” sold for $6,000, while the “We Are the World” statuette banked in $72,000.

Cyrus is currently a judge on NBC’s “The Voice,” on which she served as an advisor last season.

The former Disney Channel star, now best known for her outrageous behavior, drew the fire of fans of show on Twitter, with some even saying they planned to stop watching because of her casting.
