<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SuperDave, post: 2370933, member: 1892&quot;]It hasn&#039;t exactly fallen off the side, but I&#039;d call this a little more than &quot;slightly&quot; off center. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I think it&#039;s a <b>far</b> more interesting coin than you&#039;ve heard so far. Lettering has actually fallen off the edge of the reverse - the popularly-accepted dividing line at which value begins going up - and since the obverse isn&#039;t that far off (although the TY are very near the edge, and if I have it right they&#039;re normally closer to the rim than the reverse lettering) one has to think the dies were misaligned as well. There are a few different failure modes which can create this look. Is there any reeding at all around the edge of the coin? And how does it compare stacked on a &quot;good&quot; Kennedy?</p><p><br /></p><p>Not a &quot;Million Dollar Coin,&quot; but I bet anyone with a scholarly interest in misaligned dies and off-center strikes would want to see it. I think [USER=68]@cladking[/USER] is a good member to invoke as a start point for more information - he should know someone with such scholarly interest if it&#039;s not in his wheelhouse - as Kennedys aren&#039;t exactly my specialty and I don&#039;t know how rare such strike errors are with them. Let&#039;s see what we can stir up for you. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
