Willburton Pillar of the Community United States 2558 Posts	Posted 10/20/2025 1:09 pm I just purchased this coin for a decent premium (compared to a normal off center). My best guess is that it is a weak strike along with being off center. I am having difficulties uploading any images but have a link to the PCGS cert below. What would you call this? https://www.pcgs.com/cert/54101783 * Edited by Staff - Image Uploaded Here. * Report this Post to the Staff

HondoB Bedrock of the Community United States 25109 Posts	Posted 10/20/2025 1:37 pm That is a crazy looking off-center, Willburton - excellent acquisition! Here is the pic from your PCGS info page, so that it's more available for discussion. Inordinately fascinated by bits of metal with strange markings and figures Report this Post to the Staff

Brandmeister Pillar of the Community United States 6495 Posts	Posted 10/20/2025 6:36 pm I would call that a skidding strike. Pretty neat error coin. https://www.error-ref.com/?s=Off+ce...dding+strike Report this Post to the Staff
-makecents- Pillar of the Community United States 8744 Posts	Posted 10/20/2025 6:44 pm I remembered seeing something similar to this. Maybe a "Stretch Strike"? https://www.error-ref.com/strech-strikes/ -makecents- Report this Post to the Staff

Willburton Pillar of the Community United States 2558 Posts	Posted 10/23/2025 8:07 pm Guys, I've got this coin in hand now and it was struck on a quarter planchette!!!!!!! And it is a proof coin imo. I'm doing my best to upload a photo. When I save a photo on pixlr it doesn't save to the files on my phone. I bought more storage on my iCloud and still doesn't work. I'll figure it out soon enough and be back to normal. Edited by Willburton 10/23/2025 8:21 pm Report this Post to the Staff
