Any other hoops collectors notice anything odd about this piece?

Nothing stands out. What's wrong with it?

If it's from the 1976-77 season, it should look like the one on the left.

If you're tailing about the ® copyright, then I'm glad I didn't guess.

Wilson didn't use that stamping on game balls for another couple of seasons. And the 1980 date stamp didn't show up until 1980. :)

Ouch. That is some pretty bad news for the buyer. Thanks for the info.
