Matthew Giles created a document in the group: YUGIOH! During production, cards are sometimes printed with errors. In most cases, these typographical errors add no value to the card. For example, cards printed when the press runs out of ink are not misprints.

Once the error is identified, the defective plate is discarded and replaced with a new one, and misprinted cards are destroyed before being boxed. These misprints also have to escape this final quality assurance, and their rarity gives them their collector’s value.
One of the most common misconceptions about books is that typographical errors make them rare or valuable. Unfortunately, while certain types of errors can add to a book’s collectible value, they alone do not add value to an otherwise inexpensive book.
As long as there’s demand for Yu-Gi-Oh cards, they’re always worth something. The trading card game first launched in 1996 – and it’s still going strong. So rest assured that Yu-Gi-Oh cards are going to be worth big bucks for the foreseeable future.
A miscut card is the result of a misaligned sheet during the cutting process. Miscuts are one of the most common types of mistakes, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t valuable. There are two key things that can make your miscuts worthwhile for collectors: the map it’s on and/or the severity of the miscut.

Authentic cards have a shiny square stamp in the lower right corner of the front of the card with the words “Yu-Gi-Oh!” in small, horizontal type. Forged cards may be missing the foil stamp or the letters may be arranged vertically. The color of the foil should be either gold or silver.
Miscut cards are just that – Miscut. Maps are printed over a large area. Map sheets that are (typically) 11 by 11 are cut into individual people at the factory, but there is a risk of human error.
If a correct overprint is added to a LEGO element in a different color than usual, the result will be a misprint on the wrong colored part. These misprints are worth more just because the error is more extreme and they don’t happen that often.”
If you buy an incorrectly bound or incorrectly printed book, you can return it to the store where you bought it; they will happily exchange it for a correctly tied one. (You return the erroneous copy to the publisher.)
As the set’s name suggests, Blue-Eyes White Dragon Edition 1 is one of the most coveted cards in the game with a recent sale of $55,100. Circulation was limited as the game was just beginning, and collector demand for these cards continues to grow.
Modern Super Rares have holofoil graphics, level and attribute icons. Older Super Rares only have holofoil artwork. Ultra Rares are identical to Super Rares, but they have gold foil lettering on the card name. A Secret Rare has a rainbow colored foil applied to the artwork, card name, attribute and tier.
Final Thoughts on the Holo-Bleed
In fact, it’s the holo-pattern itself that is so error-prone. Other cards with holo-bleed are very rare to find. If you notice a slight holo-bleeding on one of your cards, congratulations, but it’s probably not worth much. Holo Bleed cards are worth a lot when the card itself is worth.
If the manufacturer never corrected the card, the card is considered an “uncorrected error”. Often, however, “error map” is used in a more restricted sense, meaning only those maps where variant versions exist. An example of “variations” was in the 1959 and 1960 Topps baseball sets.
Errata (Japanese: エラッタ Eratta) are changes to any part of a card’s text (other than the card number) that occur between reissues.
