Like it. The date lines up nicely. Are any details showing on the reverse? Thanks, Doug.

That's cool. I wonder how coins like this aren't snached up by the first pair of hands it hits as at the very least an oddity. I mean come on, you don't have to know jack about coins to know this is special. It confounds me more than people who find morgans for $1 at a bank!?

Can I suggest you get a bottle of verdicare to conserve it and remove the verdigis. It should look 1000x better

That is very nice, being so far off and have the date lined up so straight.

I've lost count on how many off center cents I gave away in the last 2 decades, to children & donations at coin shows for young numismatic prizes..
Since I only see the obverse side, is the reverse side a machine strike or uni- strike? Just curious...

Sweet find.

Especially from circulation.

I still haven't found a basic blank planchet in any denomination from roll hunting over the last few years.

It's crazy to think that would be found in circulation considering how it is such an obvious error. What was the person behind the register thinking?
