I remember one other instance where PSA incorrectly labeled a Heinie as a Honus. If I further remember correctly, they invalidated the certification number in that case. I believe it was their way of trying to induce the owner to send the card back to them for correction of the flip.

Here is the card from the last time this happened.

We all make mistakes. Usually, we learn from them. One would think that the busiest grading service in the world would recognize the most famous card in the world.
