You can call it what you want, I said error because that covers a large variety of things from misspellings to production error, but it's a Hall of Famer with a significant amount of damage to the name plate. You can't find too many cards that left the factory with nearly two full letters missing and the bottom of the A is missing as well.
People have spent thousands on cards with one letter missing or even the Sharpe-Shappe card with a part of a letter missing, so I don't really think spending $175 on a HOF'er with a much more significant issue is overspending.
