coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 02/20/2019 5:23 pm These are call MAD coins. The misalignment of the dies are collectable. They devices fall over one edge of the coins, leaving a weakness on the opposite sides of the coins. They are not off center coins, so the value would be lower than an off center coin. Nice finds. Are the edges showing any partial collars? Report this Post to the Staff
Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74718 Posts	Posted 02/20/2019 5:24 pm Not Off Center. If it was, then both sides would be affected. This is called a Misaligned Die (MAD). Still a nice find! It's misaligned enough to have a premium over face value. Worthy of a 2x2. http://www.lincolncentforum.com/mis...ter-strikes/ Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
