**Edit**
Odd at first glance I thought off center. But I believe I am wrong !!


Quote:
Off-center coins: If a planchet lies partially outside of the dies during the striking, it receives an off-center strike. Each coin struck off center is unique. Off-center coins with dates are more valuable than coins without dates. Generally but not always, on dated coins, the greater the off-center strike, the more it is worth. Some collectors collect off-center coins by their "clock" positions. Hold the coin with portrait upright and look for the direction the strike lies. If it is at 90 degrees, the strike is at 3 o'clock; if it lies at 270 degrees, the strike is at 9 o'clock. Premiums have been rising for late-date examples of this error, since fewer are being produced and released.

Looks a lot like a broadstrike. The planchet seems oddly shaped. Congrats!

Thank you everyone for the info.

What would be the value to a collector for something like this? (I will be keeping it, I am just curious).

I see the shadow of some reeding showing on the normal edges
of the coin. A guess that the stretched side has no reeding ?
If not, then would that not also be partially out of collar ?
