Bought this as an off center strike along with a LMC struck through (I'll post later). I didn't notice the clash until I reviewed my purchase at which point I new I got a bonus error. Once in hand I was further surprised to find this is an Atypical Clash because of the double clash. There are some fine scratches on the coin which I'm not sure are die related or not.

@coin, at the risk of quibbling over semantics, I'd call this a MAD rather than an off center strike. Whatever term you use though, this is a really neat example to add to your collection. Well done!!

The weakness on AMERICA is where the die was not located over the reverse and the strike didn't have full pressure on that area of the die. The clash movement on the building may have been a movement of the dies because of the MAD alignment?
