QuarterHoarder72 Pillar of the Community United States 2156 Posts	Posted 03/15/2020 11:19 am None of those look off center to me. One of them might have the slightest MAD, but even then I would consider them spenders. Report this Post to the Staff
Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 03/15/2020 11:26 am Agree, these are most likely slight die mis-alignments, not off-center strikes. Report this Post to the Staff
Spence Moderator United States 34428 Posts	Posted 03/15/2020 11:46 am @john1937, generally speaking when the mis-alignment is great enough that some of the inscriptions or other design elements start falling off the edge is that point when these become collectible. That said, the cost of ownership is pretty low, so you should keep them if you want to.

Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 74770 Posts	Posted 03/15/2020 12:15 pm I agree. Not Off Center. That's a different animal. Very slight Misaligned Die issues. These are spenders in my opinion. https://coins.thefuntimesguide.com/...error-coins/ Errers and Varietys. Report this Post to the Staff
John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 03/15/2020 1:25 pm How can anyone tell if they are off center strikes without seeing the reverse? John1 Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 03/16/2020 01:30 am Well if the obverse is not off center, you can bet that the reverse is not off center. Both need to be off center to be an off center: Report this Post to the Staff
sel_69l Bedrock of the Community Australia 21788 Posts	Posted 03/16/2020 02:54 am I only collect spectacularly off center strikes as illustrated in coop's pictures. From my experience, they are not as rare as some may think. About 20 years ago, a coin dealer friend of mine brought about 200 of them back from the Long Beach Coin show for sale in his local sales listings in Australia. All clad Dimes and plated Cents.
