If I were to submit a coin with an error to a TPG, would I have to request that they include the error on the label or would they do that automatically?

I would certainly list the error on the submission. Hopefully the grading service will confirm and certify.

I've submitted several errors to ANACS because I think they are reliable for certifying errors. They were also a lot less expensive than PCGS or NGC. Which service would you choose?

Got any photos of your error coin?

First off, you need to make sure they attribute the error. PCGS and NGC state what they will attribute and you must add it on the line item, and pay the attribution fee. I think ANACS is a lot more flexible, you can point them to CONECA or other resources and they will verify and list if they agree with it. At least that is my understanding.
I swing a metal detector and have a knack for finding dirty old coins.

Make sure the coin is "worth" sending in first.
