<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Revello, post: 7998245, member: 103898&quot;]The only Sheldon variety for a 1811 Large Cent is S-287, except for an 1811/0 which would be S-286.&nbsp; So, as soon as they call it an 1811 (without 1811/0), it is an S-287, and if the coin owner asked for a variety attribution (which he probably asked for if he was hoping his 1844 large cent was an 1844/81), the S-287 automatically is attributed since it is the only one for an 1811 (without 1811/0).</p><p><br /></p><p>The above is speculation, just as those who think a label was swapped from another slab destined for an 1811.&nbsp; Bottom line:&nbsp; NGC was sloppy with this coin.&nbsp; I truly don&#039;t know how common such errors occur, but when you pay a substantial sum to have one of the elite TPGs grade/certify/slab your coin, I would hope that such occurrences are extremely rare.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
