    Found this roll hunting off center strike with I think a die crack or worn die on the right edge if im not mistaken. Not good with errors yet was seeing if anyone could confirm it

    Looks slightly misaligned. Not sure what the right side would be though.
    @paddyman98 any idea?

    Looks like Finning. IMHO

    It was a high pressure strike and the Finn folded over into the field.

    I agree with misaligned die strike. Not an off center strike. Finning is associated with misaligned die strikes.

    Not super rare. But to find one is neat.

    Worth keeping? Yes.

    Stick it in a 2x2 and save it in a safe place.
    Premium? Not much. For a collector as myself. I would pay $2.00 or $3.00 for it.

    That's more than I would have expected someone to pay. Does this type of error show up in graded examples?

    That's what I would pay as a collector. That's not an established worth amount. ;)

    No attributed examples that I know of in that condition. But there are Finned Rim examples.

    Here is one from my collection -

    Thank you for sharing. I always look for graded errors in my search at non ebay auction houses and have found nice errors that are affordable. I'm all over the place with my collection, it keeps it interesting. It seems every week a fantastic error is being sold at a phenomenal price.
