Hi cladhunter13
The observe show the die is well centered, but the reverse die is off center.
For me is : Partial Collar Broadstrike with off center for the reverse die.

Thank you for the input. Got to love coin roll hunting. It is like christmas with each roll you crack to search. :)

When I see something like this I get the urge to run down to the bank and get a box of pennies.But the urge passes when I recall how much work is involved searching and rerolling the coins.Keep it up cladhunter,I guess that for you the effort is rewarding.

Well. I started roll searching in Oct of 2009. I have searched at least 80 boxes of cents since then and this is my first coin of this type. I do not mind the work that goes into re-rolling the coins I return to the bank. takes me less then a hour to re-roll the 50 rolls to return. Depending on how detailed I feel like being on the particular day...I can sort and search a box of cents in a day. That is if I'm do not feel like checking each coin for errors/varieties. I usually check the 70's and under with a loupe. Check for 85 pointed 5. The usual 90's and 2k's. I have managed to find 5 x 2000 No P No Logo magnetic, 2 x 2000P Magnetic, 1998 US WAM, 1999 US WAM and many other varieties and errors both in US and Canadian coinage. Oldest cents so far to date from Canadian bank boxes: 1921 Canada and 1892 US Indian Head. Coin roll hunting has brought many hours of relaxation and fun. What else can you do that basically has no cost and has paid for itself many times over. I have sold 6 coins since I have started collecting in 2009. I only sold the coins to purchase a metal detector. I figured metal detecting was a good hobby to pursue that will also benefit my coin collecting. I keep anything 1960 and older. Unless they are trashed. I keep modern dates only if they are in excellent condition or if they exhibit a error or variety. I have searched a few boxes of nickels and 1 box of quarters since I started. They are a lot of fun. Just do not always have the resources to buy a box each week. Managed 2 1968 silvers from the box of quarters...not much else worth mentioning. Well...that is my collecting habits in a nutshell. Works for me. Happy hunting all and have a great holiday season.

4 different 2006 No P No Logo Magnetic Cents and 2 different 2006P Magnetic cents. All in lower raw grades. I hit a run of boxes that seemed like every box that month had a 2006 No P No Logo Magnetic cent in it. The last one I found was in April 2010. Haven't found one since.
