Different issue, but very similar.
In 2016 I purchased 2 sets of 5x7 Garbage Patch Kids sets that were supposed to be numbered to 49. When I received the sets they didn't have the serial number. When I reached out to them I got the response:

I received the replacement that had the serial numbers 1 and 2 of 49, but that left me thinking that I now had a non serial numbered set and a serial numbered set of a set that was only supposed to have 49 produced. So I contacted Topps back asking how many really were out there now with and without the serial numbers and I never heard back from them. I have since sold all the sets via ebay and I listed them with this information. I have no idea still if those sets 1/2 of 49 were the only ones to ever be serial numbered.
