Is this large cent off center?

I was looking at the large cent I won in Jeremy's auction and it looks like it is a little off center. Does it look like that to you too?

Thanks

No, a coin is only an off center coin if it is missing some of the design due to being off center. Your coin looks a little misaligned or maybe even a little broadstruck. Would have to see an image of the reverse to make a better decision.

It is slightly off center, but it wouldn't be considered an error

Looks more like a misaligned die to me.

Thanks everybody. Now I'll have to read about the differences between off center and misaligned.

As above the obv and rev dies are slightly out of alignment. With real off-center pieces both sides will be off-center in the same direction.

Tap the 2x2 on a table. It should center up fairly easily.

Nope. Quite normal. No premium.
