Nice photography. "Broad rim obverse right and missing rim left." more commonly called a misaligned die. but you probably already knew that. You show a nice example of a well worn, heavily polished, mis-aligned die. I think the machine doubling is more the result of the die wear. thanks for posting.
Actually, the OP was correct that this is an off-center strike and not a misaligned die strike, since the reverse and obverse are off the same direction. He got everything correct except the correct term is "ridge ring.". Nice job, Ron"

Do you stutter Will. Couldn’t help myself. I learned that lesson on the difference by someone much more knowledgeable than me awhile back when thinking I had an off center strike which turned out to be a misaligned die. I’m glad someone spoke up and let me know I did not know what happened to my coin. Thanks for all that you guys do in helping us.
