<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Oldhoopster, post: 4258876, member: 84179&quot;]It&#039;s called a Misaligned Die (MAD).&nbsp; One die is installed slightly off center, while the other die is installed correctly.&nbsp; You can usually find cents and dimes exhibiting MAD, and it doesn&#039;t normally add any extra value to the coin.&nbsp; The OPs coin has quite a bit of misalignment and therefore, it may be worth a minor premium over face value.</p><p><br /></p><p>It IS NOT an off center error.&nbsp; An off center strike is caused by the planchet not being centered in the chamber.&nbsp; Both sides will show the same amount of off-centering. </p><p><br /></p><p>One side off center = MAD</p><p>Two sides off center = Off Center strike</p><p><br /></p><p>Hope this helps[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
