Thank you everyone. My plan is to leave it as is I was just wondering what any of you would have done if you pulled a wet ink plate.  Interesting on the answers I've gotten. 

Yes, do scan it. I do think cleaned would be better than a dirty image. Because we want clean Images here, a bad image does get denied or is replaced in time if it's been accepted. You could always digitally clean it. After the scan to keep the ink on. If you don't know how there are people here that can for you.  

Also, there is not only one plate. That would be foolish if something went wrong with it. When I worked at a printing shop, we have more than one press rolling Printing the same cards and we were not the only one in the country printing the cards. 

Thats pretty cool! Personally I would leave it as is.

I'm assuming it's a simple metal plate with a sticker on the back? (I'll find it when you scan it lol). Upper Deck hockey tends to mount these plates in cardstock, so they're cleaned up pefore packing

When I get home I will scan the card and import it into the data base
