Topps Carlos Beltran Error

[Tneal45]

Hi everyone I am new to this forum. I have been collecting on and off since the late 80's. Finally getting around to scanning my collection so I have a digital record of it. It's been great because I am finding things I did not know I had. Basically just a lot of numbered cards. I collect errors too, not the ridiculous print errors from a speck of dust but true errors. I came across this Beltran Error the other day that took me 25 years to catch! Carlos Beltran on front, Matt Anderson on the reverse. I have tried to do some research on it and have come up empty handed. With Beltran on the ballot, I am hoping it will raise value. I appreciate the feedback. Thanks.

It’s a wrong back which are created when one side is printed and then sent thru the wrong press for the back resulting in a whole sheet of wrong back cards.

It can also happen if a sheet is sent through the right press but fed wrong so the two sides line up with different backs.

Also cards that miss one side printed get into packs, usually the back being blank.

As far as value there is some but no set value. I would pay $3 for it but certain collectors who are into the error, player or team might pay a premium.
