Hello All, 

I'm very close to finishing the base set including the #500 serial lucky 13 rookies. Almost every serial number I've seen has been posted in the top left corner. However in the 3 #177 Emeka Okafor rookies I have run across, it is located at the bottom center of the card (including the image in the card listing here). I had purhcased one of them and deemed it to be a fake due to some coloring/texture issues. Plus the "stamping" of the serial number looked much more distinctive than the others in the collection. But every subsequent card I have found for just this specific card is located in the same spot at the bottom-center. Anybody have any idea why this card may be different, or if I'm just running into bad fakes?
