A find from tonight. The reverse is normal. Also, what do you call a coin that is off center on both sides? MAD? Off centered?

That is a very nice MAD, the top of LIBERTY has been cut off. If it is off center on both sides, it is simply an off center strike. MAD involves the misalignment of the dies in relation to each other while an off center error involves a misalignment of the planchet in relation to the dies.
