Question
The face is off set and cuts the top and back of the head and has In God We Trust then Liberty D 2005 on the front.
The back of the coin appears "normal" Is this coin worth anymore than face value?

Answer
Hi Diane,
It's tough to say without seeing the coin.  The fact that the back is normal is what is odd if the front is off-center.  Is there anyway you can take a picture ane email it to me?  If so, send to OMEGAPM@aol.com and use "NICKEL MISPRINT" in the subject so I see it.

Thanks
