For example, why are there so many more off center US coins.

Are there really more as a percent? The United States probably mints 10x the coinage of Canada, so logically the total number of errors would have to be a large multiple higher. We probably also have 10x the number of coin collectors looking for that stuff, assuming coin collecting is proportional to overall population.

The number of U.S. off center cents, nickels, dimes and quarters is mind boggling compared to the number of Canadian off centers that are out there. I've personally seen several $50.00 bags of off center cents and the number in my collection is extensive. Same goes for Cuds and other error types. I know a person that has over 20,000 U.S. Cuds in his collection and I have owned hundreds at a time myself but only have 2 on Canadian coinage. It has to be a quality control issue.
