    Misaligned Die Strike. Nice example.

    Worth? Whatever a collector is willing to pay for it.
    I would give you $1.00 for it. No joke.

    When posting a coin for comment, it usually makes sense to post both sides of the coin. This could be a MAD or Off-center Cent which could affect pricing. In this case, the condition is minor, but does have the date which is desirable. Depending on the availability, probably around $2.

    No problem. A Misaligned Die affects one side of the coin whereas an Off-center Strike affects both sides. MADs are quite common varying in degree of minor where the rim is uneven around the coin to moderate like you have there. When the coin loses device details (clipped lettering) it becomes more desirable to a collector. Off-center strikes vary as well, but typically the degree of lost details is more significant and of course, affects both sides. Having a date is generally most desirable.

    Cool MAD. I usually don't keep them unless part of the design is missing like this:
