Looks like about 10% off-strike. Ebay could get you about $10 or so.

What you have is not a mis strike. In numismatics, it is known as an off-center strike. I think your example would be a III-M-7, or "Struck Off-Center 10-30%". The more the coin is off-center on the strike, the greater the potential value. My 2006 Coin Digest (woefully outdated) lists this as a rarity 3-6 level, and suggests a value of $3 and up. They are not common in my experience. You may wish to hold on to it rather than let it go for the $3-10 you might receive for it on Ebay, as previously suggested. Or not.

Lets follow this ebay sale and see where it goes.it should give you a rough idea as too value.Remember some dates or state quarters that are off center are more common than others so I would think plus or minus 10/15 bucks in either direction.
