I think you did great ! That mint error is massively off enough to be collectible for sure - don't know the $$$

Holy crap !! :headbang:

That off center mint error is a GREAT example !! 8-) Graded examples are selling from $8.00 to several thousand dollars. Some listed are selling for $300- $400. :dontknow: Realistically though I'd say around $10-$15 for that example.
Heh, great find. :laughing7: I've never even found one anywhere before !! :icon_scratch: This is something you should hang onto. They are going to stop making the cent soon. So it will only go up in value. :thumbsup:

Keep @ it and HH !! :hello2:

Thanks!!! This is the first one I have spotted as well. I knew as soon as I saw it that I wanted it lol and for a buck I figured I couldn't go wrong.

Definitely. I'm sure I've seen the button before, but not with the ribbon and harp.

That off center penny is worth about 5$ if it had the date it would be worth more or if in better condition it would be worth more. I have seen ones like yours that have sold for higher, but on average about 5 bucks.
Thanks for sharing. Great find. WH

I like the openers, I collect them and pick them up whenever I find them...I have a bunch hanging from one of my bottle shelves....

The penny is likely a 1983 d, My mom was a reserve teller at a small bank then and found probably 20 or so of them. I still have one. Even with the date though they only bring around 10$ Still a great find and definitely cool.
