I have this coin that seems to be an error. Notice how the silver ring is thicker on the right.

It's an error -- I'm just not sure how it happened.

I found this information. It's not quite the same but it might give you an idea how it happened. http://goccf.com/t/216215

This is a very interesting error.

Here's more information. http://www.error-ref.com/bi-metalli...econd_punch/

I think that your coin has an error similar to the one on that site.

Nice error coin!

It looks like a misaligned ring hole. A similar error occurred in some Canadian two dollar coins in the year 2000.
