Dearborn Moderator United States 96580 Posts	Posted 04/09/2023 12:01 pm This is considered a MAD Strike, a Mis-Aligned Die. We see this quite often on the smaller coins such as this dime. What makes it a MAD vs an off-center? Well that obverse is not centered and the reverse is centered. Collecting since 1972. Learning from then on "Tell me and I forget. Teach me and I remember.
