I don't think you need to be a grammar nazi to know it is incorrect, just read at a 6th grade level.

You could have.
Of what could you have?
Could of obviously comes from mispronounciation of could've

Ummm, try asking a third grader this.

Could have
Could've is mistaken for could of.
Could've is mistaken for could of.

honest question, are you trolling us, or do you really see the phrase "I could of gone home" in any way correct?
OP is a troll, right?

Sadly, I think that contractions are taught earlier than that.

It is correct, if you are asking something like, "Could 'of' be used at the end of a sentence in a grammatically correct fashion, given the general rule against ending a sentence with a preposition?"
Otherwise, no. You are dumb.
