Perhaps a very slight die misalignment.

Yes a good point from the frog. Remember that we call it an off-center strike generally if both sides are offset in the same direction and by the same amount. On the other hand, we call it a mis-aligned die if only one side is offset. it looks like you might have this second condition on this coin.

Nothing special here
