I'm not seeing anything out of the ordinary.
A misaligned die can't affect only one device. That's when one die is offset a little bit so one side, usually the obverse, appears a bit off center.

@spyder, I agree with @numis on this one. Here is the definition of MAD from this site's glossary:


Quote:
misaligned die
An error that occurs when the two dies fall out of alignment and are not exactly parallel.

Sometimes there is rub on devices that may make it look like a spread on the center of the devices. But a spread would indicate there is added width to the devices:

The devices look normal in size on your coin?
