I don't know if this is really a defect, and I Don't know how often this happens in NES games, or if this is just trivial nothingness. My copy of Contra, the sticker on it, part of it goes over the groves that are supposed to mark sticker placement. I was just curios about this, but it is probably nothing...

It would help if you had a better camera; I can't see any problems with the label with such a low resolution picture. If you mean that the label is slightly off-center on the cart, that's relatively normal.

I would say anywhere between 10 to 20 rupees.

Part of the label is out of the recessed label area... A whole mm! LOL

2k monies per atomic width of label misplacement, at least.

Reality Edit: Nice condition Loose Contra NES 10-15 USD
If the fact of a misplaced label would bother a buyer, you might have to make a price reduction to get over that. Summary: No more than a well placed label, but possibly less.

In my heart, I will always know that my copy of Contra is super extra special.

I bet VAG would rate that highly.

That's easily a solid VAG 95. You should definitely send it in for VAG Resealing and Grading.
