I don't recall one, but I did one time pull an off-center Franklin half dollar out of a US double mint set.
How off-center was it?
Any photos?
Not to hijack the thread, but that sounds really cool.

Not something that I'd look for or want to own but it is interesting.
Ditto.
Never been a fan of this kind of toning, and the lamination only serves to make it a bit uglier, BUT it IS interesting.
Definitely in the "COOL ugly" category for me.
Worth a premium? Dunno. Not to me, but maybe to the right person.
For what it's worth, I've never seen a lamination on a silver half, or indeed any silver coin except War nickels.
They're probably out there, but can't be terribly common, surely?

Agree, I can only recall seeing one. It was a 57-D.

That is very cool, and undoubtedly a very scarce item.
