Interesting 2014 Heritage Error. Ever seen this?

[jbrown]

So I pulled this odd error from Heritage today. Anybody seen this before? Does this help the value much?

Is it double serial numbered?

Is it double serial numbered?

Yes #58 /999 & #140 /999

Is that scraping on the front? It kind of looks like it got hung up in the serial numbering process. Cool stuff, but it really means there's one out there without a serial number. Sometimes those add premiums.

Yes #58 /999 & #140 /999

What the? Weird - I'd assume that if it got hung up that it'd be sequential numbers.

Yes #58 /999 & #140 /999

That is soooo cool! I want a Dawson with two serial numbers!

No scraping just a bad scan I guess. I was baffled since the numbers aren't sequential.

Put it on eBay as a 1/1 for $999

I put it up for 10% of that number.

It's just one of those regular error cards. Like I have a 2011 Yonder Alonso card with Eric Sogard's stats.

And that means you'll get offers of......one tenth of that :twisted:

I guess it's another good data point that Topps may be using random numbering in the production process. I pulled a numbered insert in each of two consecutive boxes once and the numbers weren't sequential and I wondered why. Now it appears it's because they aren't stamped on the card sequentially.

It's bad for Topps in that if it's a random stamping, it improves the odds that there will be 2 or more cards with the same numbering since you have to rely on the software to not reuse a number twice in the stamping process.

I guess it depends on which way the cards moving when they are stamped.. top to bottom or side to side. Could be a whole row of cards on the sheet could be this way.

No way they do that, the stamping is done with rolling number dials, they are stamped sequentially.
