Hi all! I'm still pretty new to finding and identifying errors, so I may be wrong here. It's slight, but this guy looks off center to me. What do you think?

Not an off-center strike, it is a MAD=misaligned die. Very minor.

I agree that you have a MAD here. We typically tell folks that there is numismatic value added when the tops of the letters start to fall off the edge. It's a little hard to tell from these pics, but I think that you are pretty close to that. Well done!
