    So, this is a "broadstruck" error. This one is a bit more extreme, but some of the date is missing. I am thinking it MIGHT be post 1982 because the coloration makes me think zinc cent, but I'm not 100% certain on that either.

    Error #3. More off center, higher value, or meh . . . . . . ?

    I believe this is called “off center strike” rather than “Broad strike”

    That's what I remember calling them. Is there much interest in these now days?

    Estimated value to those who collect such things?

    Eternal thanks for your assistance.

    It has value because such a large amount is off center.
    Even though it looks a little more (55 or 60) it's probably classified as
    50% off center.
    Coin Quest says: Circulated, 50% off center, $10.
