Evgeni Malkin checklist error?

Normally, these Young Gun checklist cards won't land on anyone's Top 10 list. Why? That's simple. There's usually a regular Young Guns card worth much more.

There are a couple of things, though, that make this one, a 2006-07 Upper Deck Series 2 Young Gun of Pittsburgh's Evgeni Malkin, extra special.

First, it's a High Gloss version, meaning it's limited to only 10 copies, catapulting this card, or any other sharing designation, to the upper atmosphere of no available pricing due to its scarcity.

According to Beckett Hockey #205 (May/June 2008), though, these cards are serial-numbered to 10.

But if you look closely, as I have many times, there's no numbering on the card. As a result, it's my guess this could be viewed as a corrected error card.

And, if that's the case, this could very well be the most valuable card of the collection.

What do you think?
