Help Identifying a Griffey Jr. Card

Went to the flea market and found this card. Thought it was interesting. Not sure if this is the standard mystique card or not...Any thoughts?

    That is how those cards came. You have to "peel" the backing off to reveal the back of the card. This is the standard Griffey and nothing special.
    I am on a budget and I am not afraid to use it!!

    I honestly do not remember why they did this. I know some cards were numbered (in the box seen just below the players name on the front) and maybe they were trying to hide the player on the card like Topps did with their Mystery Finest inserts. I can only assume this is what they were going for.
