Coinfrog Bedrock of the Community United States 94367 Posts	Posted 10/26/2020 6:39 pm Slight mis-aligned die (MAD), not off-center. No premium here that I'm aware of. to the CCF! Report this Post to the Staff

Just to be clear about the distinction, a mis-aligned die only has one side affected whereas an off-center strike has both. Yours is a slight MAD.

fortcollins Pillar of the Community United States 3663 Posts	Posted 10/26/2020 9:16 pm That's a fairly evident MAD. I haven't seen very many after Denver switched to the Schuler horizontal strike presses in 2005. Report this Post to the Staff
coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/26/2020 10:12 pm These are collectable when the devices fall over the edge of the coin: Note the weakness on the opposite side. When this occurs, the die was out of alignment far enough to not give a full strike on the opposite area. Edited by coop 10/26/2020 10:14 pm Report this Post to the Staff

coop Bedrock of the Community United States 62064 Posts	Posted 10/26/2020 10:34 pm I try to help everyone see what I see/don't see on their coins. I'd rather present what I see, then you will know what needs to be there to ba a collectable. So I seldom give a yes or no answer. Just an explanation. Report this Post to the Staff
