PCGS Error Nickel with an Unusual PCGS Insert

I am not sure exactly how to read this insert. The coin number look-up provides the same information.
I haven't seen this before and am hoping a more seasoned collector of errors would shed some light on what the insert
represents/means.

Um…….
Data entry error! Somebody filled the spreadsheet out incorrectly.
I don't know why they could not determine the denomination but here is a link to a similar or E1111.
It stated E1111 is an umbrella number.

Double error. Coin and flip.
At least the grade is prominently displayed

Here's one with a coin number.
Is it because there's no date on the coin above?
Here's one without a full date that uses "E11111" but still has a partial date and denomination:
I’ve seen “various“ used on a label for no date errors, but that’s the first “double various“ I’ve seen…
The second description of the off-center coin is on the “Pedegree line“ – and that’s also a first that I’ve seen where the exact description is on both lines.
Nice double error label……

Thanks for chiming in Fred!
I was thinking that the double OC could be one for the obverse and one for the reverse!
I'd say that the submittor got a small bonus on this one.
It's the equivalent of an error on a star (misprinted replacement) note in the currency world. Those are neat.
No, actually more like a holder error on an error item.
TPGs have label typos on errors all the time, lack of proper QC that has continued for years and years.
I recently submitted an error US banknote to the current market-leading TPG for currency. I accidentally filled in the wrong Friedburg number on the form, and got it back with the incorrect number on the label. Makes you wonder…
Hang on to it, I think you do got some thing, just saying
The label clearly indicates that the coin was struck 150% off center.

Good to know!
Wonder if we’ll be seeing more of these?
This is from the auction description:
"Coin holds a Pedigree Sticker from the 8th Great Grandson of Thomas Jefferson."
So the Pedigree line makes sense.
