There are different variations of errors on Baseball cards. Some more desirable than others. Errors such as mistakes made on information on the card will only be worth more money if the mistake was corrected, and the card that was printed in the fewest quantity would be worth the most. Not necessary the card with the error. An example: A 1974 Willie McCovey Topps baseball card #250 was originally printed with the team Washington on top. The error was correct early, and changed to San Diego. In a recent auction the Corrected San Diego card sold for .95 cent and the Washington error card sold for $7.00 I have also seen this card sell for a couple of dollars so even if you do have a rare error card you need collectors that desire the card.
Other errors are made during the printing process. "Flopped" negative image, Wrong back, Blank back, printed half off center, or combined with another player to name a few examples. There are a descent amount of collectors that collect these type of errors. Prices will also vary based on the popularity of the player as well. If the error on your Willie McCovey card was never corrected it will not add extra value.
