ERROR COMIC INFO: X-MEN COMIC - FRONT & BACK REVERSED, COVER DATE DIFFERENT FROM INTERIOR

I bought a box of comics - 121 in all - from a friend who found them in a storage auction he won, and in the middle of the stack was this x-men comicwith the front & back reversed so it opens like a torah or Jewish book!

The cover also has the publication as #365, March 1999 . But inside on the first page of the interior comic it says it's #365 Feb 1999! (And it is the right interior; on the 2nd page is the title page which matches the cover's title (Ghost of Christmas Past)

What do I have here? Googling comic errors shows no mention of a reversed cover.

How rare is this?

What is it worth? Best place to sell (eBay, Hakes, etc)

I appreciate any help

PS - The cover has no staple holes - it's like it was taken off the press before it got to the stapling part. Maybe it was supposed to be thrown away & was kept?

You reversed that, but they messed up cover/indicia dates on many mutant titles around that time. It's not unique to your copy.

It's not a reversed cover. The front cover has a foldout portion and the back cover was torn off.

Your book is worthless (even a NM copy is basically worthless). Sorry.
