I am learning about error coins. Is this an of centered penny? No sure if I know what to look for. If it is an error coin is it worth anything?
What it is.. It's a Misaligned Die Strike on the Obverse, always provide pictures of both side of any coin when you have a question. I'm sure the Reverse side is centered properly. What it is worth.. 1C The Cent misalignments are very common and not considered a major error with any premium unless it occurs on a larger denomination such as From my collection -
Thanks for the replies! I kinda figured it was common but I am learning what to look for. Sometimes the cool finds are very noticeable and sometimes it's such a small detail that even looking for it you could miss it.
Off centered coins are more severe with more of the planchett being blank. They are worth a little more when more of the planchett is blank, like say if was 70% off centered. Also worth more when the date is showing.
