1990 ProCards

I was scrolling through the cards on a check list and imagine my surprise when it went from 722 to 1000 it completely missed 723-999.

Or is this checklist just misnumbered and there are cards 723-999?

Beats me. COMC shows this card as #739 of that set as the only card within that range:

while we list it here instead:

and the numbering does seem to be in a different format from the ProCards set. The CMC set in general looks odd to me due to the different designs used for different teams, with all but one of the first 653 using the "green" design, the last couple of hundred or so using the "brown" design, and a mix of both between 654 and 691. 

if i'm right.. these were actually different sets, so the first 27 cards were issued as a set as that team, the second group was issued as a set for that the other team, so on..

Hey HutNut the card is graded wrong. Its real number is 739 not 1324 as it says on the label.

If you look at teh back right bottom you will see small markings. These are the numbers for the card and it is 739 which puts it in the cmc set and not the procards set. 

Apparently the cmc cards of that year left the numbers in the top left hand corner even though those numbers have no meaning in the cmc set.

The main way to tell these cards apart from the 1990 CMC/ProCards set, where a player is in both sets, is that the actual ProCards team set issued cards will not have the small number on the lower right corner of the card back. In hand, the team set cards will also not have a super glossy finish on the front.
