Is this typo?



The concept of using money or some other item of value to buy things is as old as human existence itself.
Is this "item" just a typographical error? I can't think of any reason why it has to be a singular.

No, I don't think it's a mistake. "Item" sounds fine to me.

some, like any, can be followed by a singular C noun.

I do not see any typo here.
