<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Morgandude11, post: 24552217, member: 37839&quot;]Yeah, it is an off-center strike.&nbsp; PCGS called it 40% off center.&nbsp; I agree that it is approximately 40-50% off center.&nbsp; These errors are fairly common—usually, as the planchet tumbles into the press, it lands partially in the collar, or sometimes, even completely out of the collar that restrains the blank, for its meeting with the die pair.&nbsp; It can also happen with misaligned dies as well.&nbsp; Suffice to say, the dies only strike a certain percentage of the coin’s image on the planchet.&nbsp; In this case, it is still recognizable as a coin.&nbsp; Error collectors ideally want an off center strike of 30-50% of the coin, as it is a good balance of visible error, and intact coin.</p><p>PCGS graded this one as MS 64.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1554027[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
