I'll need a reasonable explanation of how the error occured before I would consider buying the coin for my collection. I have seen my fair share of mis-attributed coins sitting in slabs. Even the experts are not perfect. Every authorative source (CONECA, Wexler, Potter, Daughter, Crawford, etc) don't agree on everything.
