Ty Beanie Baby – Wise 1998 Graduation Owl #4187 – RARE Tag Error 1997/1998 For Sale

Common known errors on this piece:

• Tag date mismatch — the hang tag often reads 1997 while the tush tag reads 1998 (or vice versa), since Wise was released right at the year transition. This is the most frequently cited \"error\" on this bear and it\'s a legitimate, well-documented quirk, not damage.
• Name confusion with \"Wiser\" — Ty later released a similar owl called \"Wiser,\" and listings sometimes get mixed up between the two. Worth double-checking your tag says \"Wise\" (1998) and not \"Wiser\" (1999) so buyers searching don\'t get confused, and so you don\'t undersell or mislabel it.
• Some tags also show minor misspellings or printing misalignment, which collectors will pay a premium for if genuine and documented.
