This ones a little odd the holes cut a little off center to the right.

You would think that if Artbox only had to make 30 of these that they could at least punch the swatch hole centered in all of them! Roll Eyes

Hummmm. Could it be that the printing around the swatch is a little off to the left?
I notice that the ornament on the printed ring at the 3 o'clock position doesn't appear  complete, is it?

I just looked at the pix in the price list. It seems to be a little off center, also. So, I checked mine. It looks like it is not the printing that is off center after all, but it's the hole that is not carefully punched.

Just another thought. If there were a master photo set of the rare cards listed by number, these little inconsistancies would make faking them much harder in the future. Each card would, so-to-speak,  have its "finger-print" on record.
I think the anomalies make them interesting. I used to be a stamp collector, so I'm crazy anyway. Stamp collectors live for errors.
