1863 Indian Head 1C NGC Mint Error MS62
<b>1863 Obverse and Reverse 1C Misaligned Dies. Mint Error. NGC graded MS62.</b> An interesting error in which the reverse is somewhat off center while the obverse design is properly centered on the planchet. The Misaligned Die error coin &#40;MAD, for short&#41; is one of the least understood types of numismatic error coins. In the case of the MAD, what happens is that the upper die is not centered directly above the lower die, it may have come loose in the press and shifted position slightly. If the press continues to operate, striking coins, each coin will have a misalignment of the images of the obverse and reverse, as here.
