Default 1999 Topps Mis-Oriented Backs

So I just broke open a 1999 factory set, and as I was sorting, I discovered a small number of cards on which the reverse is, well, reversed. On a normal card, the card number on the back should be oriented such that it is in the upper left corner of the card when looking at it from the front. On these, it is oriented such that it is located at the bottom right corner when looking from the front. I had a set back in the day, and don't recall these. Also, I've done a quick search and can't find any evidence these were corrected or even noted as UERs in any guides.

The cards are:
#13 - Edgardo Alfonzo
#34 - Nolan Ryan
#62 - Vladimir Guerrero
#84 - Mike Caruso
#85 - Derek Jeter
#95 - Pedro Martinez
#96 - Greg Vaughn
#143 - Dan Wilson
#174 - Scott Erickson

Are these know uncorrected errors? Are they unknown? Were they ever corrected?

Any information would be appreciated.

Thansk!
