"Misprint"To clear things up, coins are said to be STRUCK or MINTED. The word "print" is used for things made with paper and ink, like $1 bills.First of all, the spelling of "TRVST" with a V is normal for all Peace dollars, so it's not a mistake. As far as the value, it depends on where it was minted. Look on the reverse (tails) side, just below the word "ONE." If you find a letter S, it's a common date currently worth around $20. If there is no mint mark, then it's the rare '28 Philadelphia Peace dollar, worth at least $150 or more depending on condition.
