Looks like fisheyes, caused by debris on the offset blanket.

In general, they're pretty common, and they can be very transient, lasting anywhere from one impression to.... hundreds?

There are a lot on that card, and more severe cases aren't al that common.

thanks for the feedback - seemed like a bit of an anomaly with so many of them. never saw that on a card before. given the shape of the card, think it's worth anything? i have a few mint ripkens same card, so easy to move it.

I like printing errors, but I'm cheap. I'm sure someone will readily pay more for it than I would.
