Hi,
What happened to this one? Is this a keeper?

What does the reverse look like? If it is normal it is called a MAD coin.

These are collectable if the devices fall over the edge.

If it is off center, then the reverse is an off center.

Here's the reverse. It's a little off, but not as much as the obverse.

MAD coin? What does that stand for?

Thanks! My second error, I just started collecting.

Makes sense on showing both sides. I'll be sure to do so.

In a roll. I picked up a few rolls from the bank to look through.

Great find! A keeper for sure. one of the more common mint errors, but still valuable, though I am not sure how much
