<p>[QUOTE="Conder101, post: 551259, member: 66"]I'd call it an uncentered broadstrike. It isn't an off-center because all of the design is there. But the collar is missing so it is a broadstrike. The Broadstrike comes in three "flavors" Centered, uncentered, and off-centered. Naturally enough the difference is whether the planchet is centered between the dies so the unstruck area is even all te way around, uncentered so the unstruck area is on one side but the entire design is visible, and off-centered where the planchet is to one side and part of the design is missing. An off-centered broadstrike and and off-center are very similar, the difference being whether or not the collar was jammed down around the anvil die so the face of the die was flush or almost flush with the surface of the collar. On an off-center coin the collar is not jammed down and often these coins will show a slight and sometimes significant bend in the coin.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
