Hey guys, I don't really know what to do with the coin on the right. Throw it back into circulation or keep it? Is it of any significance or not? The coin on the right obviously has something going on with its rim. Coin on the left is normal.

G'day, seems to be some rim-doubling from U to the last A in "Oz".

A few yeaqrs earlier - maybe 2000 - there was a mule $1, with a 10-cent obverse, which tended to be off-centre. Maybe this is a repeat of that phenomenon.

I've kept a few 2005 $1 with a "thick rim": haven't got a scanner yet.

Looks like a very marginal off centre strike to me. I've seen quite a lot of these, kept none.
