 Lets start the day with something a bit different. Interesting puzzle.  Thanks, Doug.

Maybe the edge of the collar die that has not just clashed with, but deeply damaged, both dies before this coin was struck?
The broken collar would have been why this off-center was able to be produced.

I have seen a lot of "off-centers" but don't remember seeing this anomaly. Wouldn't there be more of these seen if it is a cause of "off-center" strikes?

I believe it is an indentation which is called an external struck-through error, per Error-Ref

maybe the collar just didn't deploy properly, thus allowing the planchet to not center properly.

I'm curious why the impression stops so abruptly on the obverse? Thanks, Doug.

This is what a collar Cud looks like when the coin is struck off-center.

Sorry, I misspoke. This is what a rim Cud looks like when a planchet receives an off-center strike.

Great info, thanks for taking a look Mike. Now I guess there is a chance, albeit a slim one, to determine the date by CudsonCoins listings and die markers. I wonder if CudsonCoins would list something like a "No date rim Cud"? Maybe I'll shoot JC an email.
