And when looking at it - seemed to be off center is this the called Broadstruck MAD error? Thank you for looking. Report this Post to the Staff

Off-centers and broadstrikes are completely different, they are both collar errors. Off-center errors are struck without the collar in place and are missing part of the design. Broadstrikes are also struck without the collar in place but the entire design is present. Report this Post to the Staff

CoinCents Pillar of the Community United States 3656 Posts	Posted 12/09/2015 8:51 pm Thanks all, When I first read the reply by Numisma I was happy because I thought my Penny had gone up in value. I am mostly a penny person. Then I realized that this post for a dime that we had. I was just reading about VLDS on one of the posts here on the forum. I appreciate the info and replies.
