Thanks for the visuals, Joshua, really appreciate the help. Unfortunately the card I had, was a wax pack card. Hey, just one to add to the trade list. Thanks again. grim

That's the way to do it Commish. A few pics is worth 1000s of words. ~BOB~ ------------------------------- *Bob*

Well that's a whole lot better than trying to rationalize the difference in my head..."Every picture tells a story..."

Jason, here's a visual also to help as I found a player whose cards I have.

The cards are positioned as one would normally have them when looking at them.

If I flip both cards horizontally so that they remain upright you get this:

So the card on the left side is from a wax pack because the card number is on the upper right side and is situated behind the card's top left when looking at the front. The card on the left is from a factory set because when it was flipped the card number ends up on the lower left side, or behind the bottom right side when looking at the front of the card.
