1972 Lincoln cent oddity

Rim is offset from 10 to 2 causing thicker edge. 1.3mm to 1.6 mm in thickness of rim. What do l call this error? Thanks. Peace Roy

    Not really an error. Just a slightly misaligned die if the reverse is normal. If both sides show the same effect, then it is essentially 0% off center.

    Reverse is not misaligned. Thanks for that. Learn something every day on CU. Peace Roy
