thomas jefferson Valued Member United States 123 Posts	Posted 08/07/2017 11:54 pm Hello All: I just read the glossary definition of "off center" it says off center A coin struck on a blank that was not properly centered over the anvil, or lower, die. Coins that are 5 percent, or less, off center are graded by PCGS as a regular coin. Those struck off center more than 5 percent are graded as error coins. So is this such a coin?

spru Bedrock of the Community United States 12477 Posts	Posted 08/08/2017 12:41 am You have a slightly MAD (mis-aligned die) obverse. The reverse would have to be off in the same direction/severity to be considered off-center. This would be graded as a normal coin and being ever so slightly MAD is especially recognizable on dimes because of their small size.

CoinMasters Pillar of the Community United States 5964 Posts	Posted 08/08/2017 1:38 pm I think it's a nice find. It's not very often you find a MAD missing part of the rim. Report this Post to the Staff
