Were the 2000 APOH 3000 club bat/jersey cards numbered?

Been thinking of going for the set and have noticed some numbered (all hand numbered) and some not. The only one I have is Murray which is numbered, but then the next two are from eBay. Any help would be appreciated.

Hey man...long time no chat! Here is a link with some info. Based on what they say, only the autos should be hand numbered. Maybe the ones that are out of <350 ended up being hand numbered?

Hey, how are things going? It's been a really long time!

Thanks for the link, that is really useful (interestingly it does not mention Aaron on the list of autographs, which is obviously a oversight.) Based on the information there (and as you mention) the regular bat and jersey cards /350 should not be numbered (and I've never seen one that was numbered) while the autograph ones should be hand numbered (which is in all the one's I've seen including the Aaron I own.) On the /100 one's it seems like they should not be numbered, but I've seen a few that are... really strange.

Here's a scan of my Aaron:

The Ripkens are hand numbered also.

Thanks guys! Now just have to understand why some of these were not numbered...

And if anyone has any they would consider moving other than Murray which I have...

Sunday morning nudge to the top to see if anyone has more info... Thanks!

its possible that some might have been backdoored replacements, I cant see why some were and some weren't

I've never heard of that being the case so hoping that's not what it is. Anyone else have any input?
