Super Rare Troy Glaus Auto FT 1/1?

[ACBaseball30]

I just got this one in the mail today, and it's from the 2000 Skybox Autographics Set. I know this set pretty well (Tried to build it in 01) and noticed something odd about the card.

On the right side where "Skybox Autographics" is printed, the text has a purple like hue which lead me to believe it is part of the parallell autographics set. However, other purple foil autographics are hand numbered out of 50, whereas this one as no numbering of any kind.

What does this mean?

My guess is as good as yours. Perhaps this was the first one off the line, or the last. Perhaps this was the only one of it's kind released, making it a true 1/1.

It could be possible that many more Purple Foil Skybox Autographics weren't numbered, yet I have never seen one like this before. The regular Purple Foil Auto would book $62.50 (BV 25x2.5) and I'm looking for a little more than that in trade on this very rare card. I've provided a scan because as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words.

i too have one of these, except the purple foil is of wilton veras...i dont think its that strange, and i dont think its the purple foil..i dont know what it is though

[ACBaseball30]

I'm pretty sure it's purple foil, what else can it be? The regular cards have no purple hue at all.

that is supposed to be hand #'d/50

I'd say that it missing the #'ing makes it worth much less

either grab a marker and # it yourself or trade it at the price of a regular one

cause it being neither is pretty stupid

[ACBaseball30]

Thanks for your opinion CP20, but I'm definately not going to mark it myself. I'd rather burn it than do that.

sometimes beckett gets the the quanity of the cards from the producers even though the card is not #ed, and then they state it in beckett.

i thought this set was serial numbered. oh well, just dont take CP's advice, thats dumbest advice of 2004.
