It is on the edge between uncentered broadstrike and off center. Only the bottom part of the 4 is missing on the obverse but all of the reverse detail is present so I am inclined to agree with Conder and call it an uncentered broadstruck error. Since it has been circulated, a value of ~$10 would be appropriate.
Broadstruck and off center errors both involve a malfunction of the collar with neither having reeding. A broadstruck error will have full or almost full detail and can be either centered or uncentered. An off center error will always be missing detail on both sides, dated examples with the highest degree of off-centeredness are worth the most.
