Help - Sweet Cap 460 factory 25s - SERIFS!

[t206fix]

I've been working on a little pet project regarding SC.460.25 over the past few years and I think that I've reached a point where I need a little help from the t206 community. Regarding the 460s, I've notice that small percentage of cards in the subset have a unique printing flaw on the back side whereas the "SERIES" appears as "SERIFS". It's as if a small projectile laid over the E, causing it to appear as an F. I thought it would be "fun" to search out and collect all 69 cards with this flaw.

*I apologize, I don't know how to manage pictures, so I'm going to do follow up posts. Forgive the many, consecutive posts.

I found examples of each card with and without the SERIFS. So it's not unique to only a certain group of cards.

The 460.25 subset consists of Super Prints, 460 only and 350-460 subgroup b. The SERIFS flaw is found in all three groupings, so it's not a print group issue.

So, I'm asking you to check your SC.460.25s and look for these SERIFS. I really would like to know if there are just some cards out there that just don't have it, or if I need to keep searching. It's been about a year since I discovered a new SERIF, so it would be fun to see a new one. Please feel free to post on here with a scan of the cards you have, or feel free to PM me.

Thank you!

Probably not too helpful, but the 4 Sweet Caporal 460 factory 25 cards I have (Johnson pitching, Needham, Reulbach no glove and Willis throwing) all have 'series'.

I guess that makes me a member of the 'SANS SERIFS' tribe. Hopefully some 'SERIFS' folks can come forward to help out with your quest.

Definitely our community is on the forefont of late-breaking T206 back minutiae. Which makes us way cool.
