Found this 1979 off center strike while going through a bunch of change I had. Is it off center enough to be a keeper? Also how common are they? Any information is appreciated.

Great find! Full date Off Centers are worth more than dateless Off Centers.

Thank you. Is it worth sending in and having graded?

Dragons, it's not worth enough to justify sending in for grading. But still very cool and definitely a keeper!

It is 2x2 worthy. Check ebay sold value for an idea on current value. Feel free to use the search box to see the criteria for slabbing a coin.

Thanks for the replies. I was thinking about having it graded but I think I'll just keep it in a 2x2.

Nice find. As others have stated, not worth grading. Grading fees will eat up anywhere from $20.00 to $100.00.
