    For an error like this, the grade isn't relevant but I'd grade it MS64 give or take a grade. Also, is "error" the proper term when a coin is intentionally made this way?

    In the world of numismatics, yes. That's probably because there are lots of coins for which it cannot be known if the "error" was intentional, which makes it impossible to break the population into two classes. So better to just leave them all in one class, with one imperfectly descriptive name.

    There was no market or demand for errors prior to the mid 1950's.

    Most all early errors we see today would have been in a dealers junk box.

    MS63

    Very image!

    Is it double dated? Looks like it is dated 1861 and 1850.
