Is this a mis-print? - EvanInTexas - 07-18-2012

Hi all! Cyndi here. (Evan's Mom)

Today is Evan's birthday, and he received a box of cards from his grandma.

He received a Topps Golden Giveaway 2012 Series Two box of 72 cards.

As we were entering them into his organize, HE discovered a card that seems to be a mis-print.

In the box, we have the following:

#391 Barajas
#395 Lucroy

AND (the card in question) Rod Barajas #395 (Identical to #391, but numbered 395)

We can't find it here on Beckett.com or on CheckOutMyCards.com

What do we do?
p.s. - We also have a 1987 Mike Maddux 553 card that wasn't cut properly. The top of the card was cutoff, and the top of the next card shows, although we can't make out who it was. We can tell the next card is a cubs card and the first digit in the card number is 4, but nothing more than that.

How do we handle cards like these?

391 was a print flaw and was upside down

395 is the corrected version but shares the same # as another card.

As for finding it in the org I don't know as I don't have either lol

The mike maddux is a miscut but not an error so its actually a flawed card...... The barajas I have no idea lol

OK, then, are we safe to assume it's a worthless card to anyone, and to keep it wouldn't be of any value unless we were a die-hard mike maddux fan?
