It was stamped off center at the mint, a very desirable error coin. There's no date but we can tell by its design and apparent composition that it was made anywhere between 1959 and 1982.

Sorry about your dad, my friend. Must be bittersweet going through his things. That's a very cool error coin. :icon_thumright:

It is an error coin. It's an off center error strike. As with most error coins, it is collectible.
