I have an unusual error I need to ask about.
It is an 1883-O Morgan dollar certified as MS-64 by NGC. Common date and condition. No biggie.
HOWEVER, the label put on the slab by NGC clearly says 1882-O instead of 1883-O. I believe this is the only labeling error like this that I’ve ever seen on a NGC or PCGS coin.
Without saying “it’s worth what someone will pay for it” (too obvious), what do you think something like this should sell for? If it makes any difference, the serial number is 315259-019.

Unusual Error- What is this Worth?

Former stock broker w/ ~20 yrs. at one company. Spoke with 100k+ people and traded a lot (long, short, options, margin, extended hours, etc.).
NOTE: ANY stocks I discuss, no matter how compelling, carry risk- often
substantial. If not prepared to buy it multiple times in modest amounts without going overboard (assuming nothing really wrong with the company), you need to learn more about the market and managing risk. Also, please research covered calls (options) and selling short as well.

I suggest it might be a deduction from the value rather than an enhancement.

There is probably someone somewhere that collects that type of error.

I myself would have never bought it if it wasn’t for the mistake.

One small, friendly piece of advice: BUY THE COIN, NOT THE HOLDER.
Buy rolls NOW while you still can!

I didn’t pay any premium for the holder- thankfully.

Interesting. Why don't you send a picture of it to NGC?
