Lots of things happening on this coin. The original strike was off-center and then a second uniface strike occurred about 75% off-center to the K-8 position.

It also shows impingement at the K-1 position which pushes deeper into the reverse design. I'm not sure if the impingement was caused by another coin or a coin press part.

@Dearborn Oh, yes. Most of my coins were purchased from Dallas Rare Coin, Heritage Auctions, ebay and coin shows. I don't remember exactly where I got this one or for how much.
