Apologies in advance, if this is common knowledge to the seasoned T206 collector...
I recently noticed that there appear to be two distinctly different versions of the Addie Joss T206 Portrait. I have never heard this discussed, so wanted to inquire as to whether there are 2 known variations.
First is the variant I just noticed, which features identical common anomalies...
1. White Dot in upper-right corner
2. Black "mole" in front of his left ear
3. A "break" in the black outline, just above his left shoulder
4. White "smear" on up-turned portion of his collar
These 4 anomalies are identical in the examples currently in HA and REA, linked below...

And below is a link showing the seemingly more prevalent variation, which exhibits none of those 4 traits...

I'm in the market for a Joss, and just want to be clear on whether there is a known variant. I know the '52 Topps Mantle comes in two types, and neither seems to command a premium over the other. Does that hold true for the Addie Joss as well?
