Question
Hi. I have found a 1965 Chile coin that I believe the printing is off. I have searched the internet and have found none like it, at least the shape that this one appears. Can you please tell me what you think? I have attached pictures.

Hi Helen, that's a nice example of an off center error which can happen if the blank planchet isn't in the coin press all the way when stamped. It may be worth up to a couple dollars or more depending on amount of wear and collector demand.
You might try Ebay.com for similar pieces for comparison.
