Bumpkin Pillar of the Community United States 509 Posts	Posted 10/03/2021 11:11 am I agree with TNG on this one. In a nutshell so to speak, a misaligned die or MAD as it is known, will affect one side of the coin, usually the obverse. An off center strike will noticeable affect both sides of the coin.

HGK3 Pillar of the Community United States 574 Posts	Posted 10/03/2021 11:45 am Looks more like a tilted die. Plenty of rim visible all the way around the coin on both obverse and reverse and that "second rim" on the left hand side of the coin (both sides) suggests possibly both dies were slightly tilted.
