So you're telling me that those off center strikes are well struck because the dies are not aligned ? Sorry pal - I aint buyin that. There is no...
Yeah there is, probably a die chip or die erosion. As for this one - it's just a novelty struck on a genuine coin after it left the the US...

Disagree. If the die is turned then any previous polish lines are wiped out by the final polishing. Now - what you can have, and what most...
I'm right behind ya - may as well die rich :D
