I think this would be within mint tolerance but I'm not sure, how off struck is within limits. The queen is off center a little low and there is like a dark line where the core should connect but not enough to see through or anything. But the bear side dosnt really look off struck is this normal? I thought both sides were struck at the same time so shouldn't the polar bear side also look a little off?

Still within Royal Canadian Mint tolerances - not an error.

I figured. I'm more asking about why one side looks off but not the other. Isn't it all done in one strike?

A misaligned die? Slanted edge?

I agree, slightly misaligned. What are the mint's tolerances for misaligned cores?
