How common is a miss like this? I found this one in a cup full I won at a casino. Reverse appears normal.

They're cool to find but don't carry a premium.

Still cool though, it'd definitely end up in a 2x2 in my collection.

I have a 72 penny that looks just like this. The rear is normal but the front of the coin is offset almost identically to this coin. Is its worth anything?

Compare it to a normal nickel. Does the diameter match up?
Rest in Peace

Would this be a misaligned die then?

Yes this is a misaligned die (MAD). It starts to command a premium when some of the letters or design falls off the coin.

Just a close but no cigar. You might want to save it to show to new collectors?

@gizzy, rather than reanimate this old thread, best practice is start a new thread for each new coin. I see that you have also done that, so folks can comment on your nickel over here:
