    Queen jar with misspelled word...value?

    Hi there, I was thinking about picking up a Queen Jar with the word Widemouth misspelled. It is spelled “Widemuth”. Would anyone know what the value of this jar should be? I’m thinking it is a $5 to $10 Jar but I think the seller will want much more. Any input appreciated. .
