Never seen it and my initial guess is it was done after it was manufactured. Ya' never know though, I (and most of the board) have seen some freaky stuff.

My first reaction was that it was done after the fact as well except the ink looks like a close match to the back ink and the alignment of the stars make them look as though they were cut after stamping. Interesting.

The stars are a little blotchy, not crisp like the original printing. You should be able to easily check it out with a loupe. My guess is a rubber or wooden stamper.

100% agree with Rick. I seen this card a few yrs back at National in Chicago. Passed it up at the time but I have to say I am more intrigued now than before. Nice card!!
