Found this dime in my change and seems to have been struck off center. Would this be worth anything?

Nice find and there is value to this. There is a web-site that gives a general value. Let me try to locate it and post.
Not often is a dime a MAD, misaligned die.
Theo, hold coins by their edges to avoid finger prints on the coin.

Nice find.

In case you're wodering, a coin struck off-center would have both sides misaligned. With only one side not lined up correctly, it is a MAD.

Generally MAD coins are NOT worth a premium but yours is extreme enough to have a premium value.

Here's the reverse. What's a MAD coin?

nice find, a MAD is when one die is not aligned properly with the other resumting in an off center on one side and a regular strike on the other.

Looks like LIBERTY is over the edge of the coin making it a collectable. If LIBERTY is not over the edge, then it would not be a collectable. (The blurry image makes it hard to tell for sure)

There is also a collar clash. What does the reeding on the edge look like. Normal or partial collar?

Here is another dime that is off centered to see the differences.

Note the off center shows on both sides.
