The card below recently sold in an online auction. It is doubly scarce as an autographed piece and a Successful Farming back. What interests me the most, though, is the lack of a card number. I don't recall ever seeing an m101-4 or m101-5 card without a number. The auction completely missed this attribute in the description, so if someone wanted to erase the number and pawn it off as scarce for that reason, they dropped the ball. Do you folks think the number was 1)omitted on purpose; 2)intended but a poor ink strike led to nothing; 3) was erased intentionally; 4) wore off somehow, or 5)other explanation?
