Here are two slightly off center cents that I found while doing a search.
Do these have any appreciable value?

Hi edix

Welcome to the forum.

There is no added value for cents such as the ones you posted, as long as all of the design detail is within the rims they are within all normal tolerences.

I agree with Metalman - They have no added value
Now if you find some like this they are worth about $5 with the date showing.

The ones shown are more likely MAD's (misaligned dies). But we'd need to see the reverses to be sure.
No additional value.

Yes, I guess they would be misaligned dies as the reverses are generally spot on.
Maybe give them to a youngster.

I concur with TreasHunt, and say they're spenders. I see dozens of these things every week.

Less than that, actually. I saw a cigar box full of them at $2 each.

I was going by the ones I sold on ebay about a year ago. I have a friend that works for an armor car company, when they roll the coins he takes out and **BUYS** the errors at face value.
