This one is just a straight forward Off-Center strike. I used the measuring tool in Photoshop to come up with the numbers for the 70% calculation.

I find the amount of slide on the reverse die to be quiet interesting.
Would the indicated movement of the reverse die show that it was the hammer die on this strike?

I do not know how it was made, just that it is a great looking coin.

That seems very plausible since the hammer die would have some play to it.
