2017 Panini Instant NFL Football Forum

Just got an order from Panini that contained a few of the Panini Instant football cards I ordered.  This order had 5 of the base set Josh Gordon cards (#111 - http://www.tradingcarddb.com/ViewCard.cfm/sid/156458/cid/10485183/2017-Panini-Instant-NFL-111-Josh-Gordon?PageIndex=2) as well as one of the Green parallel.  Bought these as gifts for some Browns fans on my Christmas list.  I know that the Green set was advertised as individually numbered out of 10 (I got #1 of 10). 

When I looked at one of the cards from the base set, I was surprised to see that it too was numbered in the space on the back (box at the bottom).  That card was numbered "1 of 58".  I then noticed that the other four cards were ALSO numbered "1 of 58", so I now have 5 cards directly from the manufacturer with the identical serial number on them.  I know that the base set was not advertised as serial numbered, but it bothers me that the cards are apparently numbered without making the numbers unique...

Thoughts?

They are not serial numbered, they just state the print run.

So all 58 cards would then read "1 of 58"?  OK...guess I can accept that, but I'm not sure I like the concept...

Yes, that is the way they have done it. I agree with you, would like it more if they used serial numbers instead. I guess it is a matter of printing costs for Panini.

Better than Topps Now which does not even state the print run on the card.
