I picked up this no date Large Cent because it looks to have been misstruck. Any ideas what type of error it is, if present? Thanks for the help.

Looks normal for the time period. Surfaces look quite decent for the grade.

May have a very slight die misalignment, but that may be normal for the variety. Havn't determined the exavt varity but it appears to be a 1794 head of 94 somewhere between S-21 and S-43. Quick check possibly S-43.

One problem you have trying to determine die alignment on these comes from the fact that unlike todays coins they are not struck in close collar. So the planchet can easily be uncentered between the dies making it look like the dies are off.

Just plain old wear, but a nice-looking coin as stated.
