Default Mis marked Model 29

I have a 6 inch model 29 that is mis marked from the factory as a Model 25. Does this have any collectors value? It is a 98% gun.
Thanks.

It may add some interest from the right collector and add some value. This type of thing happens as there is a 28-2 on GB currently marked 29-2 and the dealer is trying to get extra for it and so far it hasn't sold at the premium.

Happens quite frequently and appears to have zero effect on value.
