Reverse Negative
Quick Specifications
An error where the photographic image is flipped horizontally (mirror image). The most famous examples are the 1989 Upper Deck Dale Murphy and the 1957 Topps Hank Aaron.
Condition & Grading Challenges
Verification Essential: Errors must be cross-referenced with known population reports. Many 'errors' are simply one-off printer scraps (freak defects) rather than cataloged variations.
Investment Profile
Niche Market: Errors have a highly dedicated but smaller buyer pool. Liquidity can be lower, but 'famous' errors (like the NNOF) command astronomical premiums.
