I've got a 1982 Reggie Jackson #300 that was cut wrong and has Dave Winfields name at the top (partially).

Also, there is another Chuck Finley error on the 1994 Topps #381. I have the one that doesn't have his name on the front. 

I'm guessing that your question is "are these valuable".

From what I can gather from similar posts, the short answer is "not intrinsically, but possibly if you can find a collector who values these types of misprints".

The first is a miscut, the second is simply missing its foil - both relatively common issues.  The 1994 Finley VAR listed in the database is a print code variation, not missing foil.

Hopes this helps...

That is a miscut factory defect, not an error. Most people would say that devalues the card. I am one in that boat. You might find someone who puts a value on a miscut but most would say it lowers the value.

I'm in the same boat - I can't imagine anyone paying a premium or even face value for a miscut like that (if they want it at all). Regarding the missing foil, I can understand interest from collectors of the specific player. If I came across one of my PC players with a card like that, I'd probably trade for it. But I'm also not shelling out more than the correctly manufactured card costs to acquire it.

And if OP's question was "Can these be listed as variants in the database?" rather than their value, the answer to that is no.

If you trimmed the top of the Reggie Jackson card with an Xacto utility knife (watch your fingers!), you might have better luck unloading it? There are, or were a lot of Reggie fans back in the day, and someone might need that card for their set or personal collection. 

Your Chuck Finley is actually a 1994 ToppsGold card that missed the foil step. These are semi-common on ebay.
