Definitely an off-center strike. Nice example!

 it's my first one! Any thoughts on what kind of premium this error would be worth?

Maybe 30 to 50 bucks on a good day, but they are hard to sell

Very nice! You might try to check ebay SOLD auctions for a similar one to get an idea of market value.

Isn't that "more" than just an off-center strike? I have seen them called something else when the rim pushes up into a bowl shape but can't remember, looks like a giant Rim Fin.

Thanks all. I do not have a caliper so estimate with a ruler is that the struck portion is ~16mm. So that puts it at ~16% offset.
