Really cool piece. Is this assumed to have happened naturally at the mint, or was it employee mischief? The strike seems horizontally centered, that's why I ask.

Absolute knockout error, congrats on the purchase. I bought one slabbed a couple years ago and I'll try and dig it up and start a topic on later.

Thanks folks! There are quite a few of these off-metal errors out there but sometimes an example just really catches your eye as particularly nice. This one did that for me.

As-is I should think it would sell around $250 if I were willing to wait a bit for a buyer. At $225 I would think it would sell fairly quickly. If graded somewhere around $300. I paid $150 and the dealer threw in a 1970-D 50% off center Lincoln Cent.
