Hello I have a 2023 P Edith kanaka Ole quarter and is misingthe entire right top edge and bottom left edge is double the normal height. I believe it's called a mis-strike? I've liked for awhile to find this error on other errors reported on this quare and haven't found a single example of this error. Any help would be appreciated. I will upload better pictures under microscope soon but here are a few just to show what I'm talking about.

@who, first welcome to CCF. Second, better pics would definitely help, but it seems like you are describing a coin that has been struck with a slightly mis-aligned die.

 We will need better photos, obverse and reverse. If it is only the one side that is off it is called a MAD, misaligned die. If it is off on both sides, it is an off-center strike.Here is one that is similar: https://www.ebay.com/itm/225522129945John1

 to the Community! Better pics would help, but based on what I can see, I'm in the slightly misaligned die group of thinking as to the cause of your error.

Thanks everyone the better pics were to big but I'm getting my microscope out and will post better pics shortly. Yes it's for sure off center stamped and I haven't seen this error on this one yet. Thanks for having me I apologize and will get the better pics immediately.

 If you were able to upload the images you already did, do the same thing, just with much better focus. And the die on the obverse is misaligned, if the reverse is the same way then it is an off center strike. We need to see the reverse to tell for sure.

Well it would appear that my post got deleted here. I had mentioned that in a few of the images I see coin rolling damage.
