Thanks for the responses. I'm not to "clued in" to the modern issues and variations. I guess this goes into the same category as the 1989 (I think) Fleer Billy Ripken card where the end of the bat has three different variations: FF, blocked out or "scratched out". Something like that.

I figured the "obscured 3" on the Spahn card was just a print defect, which to me would mean that it is a defect more than it is a variation. Perhaps it was Topps way of trying to correct their mistake.

Again, thanks!
