If I had a "dollar" for every 61 Topps card that I found with some green ink bleeding into the card #'s circle....well, I would have a lot of dollars. They are plentiful, and for some reason people pay huge sums for just one of them...I had 4 Fairly's before deciding to sell one copy and was shocked when a VG-EX copy with green in the circle sold for $200. I have sold a few 501 DeMerit cards and at best they bought me about $15 apiece. There are many commons I have seen throughout this set that have the green ink bleeding into the circle...too many to keep track of based on the lack of interest in all but the 491 and 501 cards.

Below are the 3 copies of the Fairly "green in the circle" card I have, the back of one of my 501 cards, a copy of a 447 card with excess green ink bleeding, and finally a card of Ben's, the black hat # 299 Clay D(I am still on the look out for another copy of this black hat card).
