I don't know what kind of error this is and would also like your advice if this coin is worth grading. Thank you in advance.

We've see similar fake off-center '09 s pieces before.

Thank you, Marve. But as ijn1944 said, we've seen these off-center 1909-S VDB fakes before - they crop up with remarkable regularity. And at less than a dollar each, I'm surprised we don't see them more often.
