If you check out the combined checklist on OC, you will notice differences in card numbers, player photos, and team designations between the -5 and -4 sets. The basic design of the two sets is the same (image border, size, etc.)
The back advertisements differ based on the -5 and -4 designation, too. For example, Sporting News ads are found only on -4 cards. The OC site breaks this down, too.
Todd Schultz and Tim Newcomb wrote an article for Old Cardboard Magazine #16. I highly recommend picking up a back issue.
