Need Help Identifying a Card

Title explains it, need help identifying a card.

This IS NOT the real deal based on the markings so it's a reprint or variation of some kind. And I forgot what pack I found it in. Ty Cobb 1912 T227 reprint card - smaller than regular card and bottom wording slightly different than real thing. Can't seem to find any information on it through three hours of internet searching. Maybe Topps?

And of course the big question, what is it worth?

    Check eBay item #310637360118. No idea of origin, but if that one looked pretty sad for a reprint and still went for $9.50.

    I don't believe Topps would issue a reprint card or set without it saying "reprint" or "Commemorative" on the card back along with a modern copyright year.
    I collect Vintage Cards, Commemorative Sets, and way too many vintage and modern player collections in Baseball (180 players), Football (175 players), and Basketball (87 players). Also have a Dallas Cowboy team collection.

    its a reproduction of the real card, its a T227 with a Miner's back its worth the value of the paper its printed on basically nothing.

    its just a reprint of a T227, the only part altered is its missing the tobacco factory district # at the very bottom of back. if they made it the right size it would be slightly small than a modern baseball card.. ie 3-3/8" X 2-5/16"

    Im fairly sure its not a Topps reprint they always alter those and would also have their name on the card somewhere or TCG, a Topps reprint will have some small value because its a real card.
