TPG error in my favor

I bought this coin on Ebay the other day. I sure was surprised when I could make out an "S" mintmark. Can I send it in for some kind of free correction? do I need to pay for a reholder? a re-grade? What should I do?
I collect circulated U.S. silver

    like MPLunatic said, NGC should fix it for you without problems. As to who pays shipping, call NGC customer service.

    Yep, I see it. Nice 'pick!
    When in doubt, don't.

    I got a 1889 Dime that has an S on they did not note, a 1843 dime that is an 1845 and several others.

    These mistakes happen but what I wonder is why does the submitter not catch it?

    Am I missing something. Does the holder not say S$1 on it now?

    S$1 means silver dollar

    I have h10c that are 10c. That is the most common one I see. Nice 50$ net gain on the coin. I hope the shipping doesn't take away your gain

    Do you plan to bump the seller any $$$ for that?

    Just wondering, if you have bid on a 1935s and received a 1935, you'd probably be here pissed and ready to get a refund, just wondering if things work equally in both directions.

    Now, Now, Now. Its only an AU58.
    I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

    The mintmark is mushy and partial, but I swear its there. I sent the coin to NGC today. I'll report back when I hear from them.
