GoldenChest Pillar of the Community United States 814 Posts	Posted 05/17/2016 09:07 am I could see that happening. Both dies shift in different directions. Not that I've ever seen one, but I think it possible. Report this Post to the Staff

The only thing I can think of for what you're asking is when a coin is struck off center with a miss aligned die if there is such a coin. Report this Post to the Staff
biokemist6 Bedrock of the Community United States 12437 Posts	Posted 05/17/2016 11:08 am Yes, it is possible to have dual die misalignment although it is not a common occurrence. I am not quite familiar with how dies are aligned on the newer Schuler horizontal presses but the position of the anvil die on a vertical press is fairly restricted so it cannot create as large of an offset as a misalignment of the hammer die.

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 05/18/2016 1:38 pm If it were off center on both sides it would be an "Off Center." The Hammer die is adjustable, the anvil die is not. So when the two are not aligned correctly we have a MAD coin. (only one side affected) Something that tells me is if it is a collectable one or not is this: The reverse will be weak opposite the most misaligned area. Note the example above that I posted with Cole's coin. I'm not seeing that weakness on the reverse of the OP's coin. So it is a close to collectable, but not a premium coin to me.
