Off-center strike errors occur when the coin blank (planchet) is not properly seated within the coining press's collar during the strike. This causes the dies to strike the planchet partially, resulting in a design that is not entirely contained on the coin's surface.&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan>The value of an off-center error is largely determined by the degree to which it is off-center (with around 10-50% often being most desirable for collector visibility) and if the date and mint mark (if present) are still legible. For a 1918 Wheat Penny, an off-center strike provides a tangible link to the rapid and sometimes imperfect processes of early 20th-century minting, where millions of coins were produced daily.\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Ch2 id=\"content5\" class=\"anchor-scroll-margin\">\u003Cspan>1918 Wheat Penny Die Crack\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fh2>\u003Cdiv style=\"text-align: center\">\u003Cimg src=\"https:\u002F\u002Fcoin-identifier.com\u002Fgallery\u002Fcoins_overview\u002F2025\u002FJune\u002Fci_article_403_6.webp\" width=\"1792\" height=\"1024\" alt=\"1918 D Lincoln cent\u002Fpenny Die break error on reverse \" style=\"\">\u003C\u002Fdiv>\u003Cdiv align=\"left\">\u003Ctable>\u003Ccolgroup>\u003Ccol width=\"123\">\u003Ccol width=\"479\">\u003C\u002Fcolgroup>\u003Ctbody>\u003Ctr>\u003Ctd>\u003Cp style=\"text-align: center;\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 700;\">Name\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003C\u002Ftd>\u003Ctd>\u003Cp style=\"text-align: center;\">\u003Cspan style=\"font-weight: 700;\">1918 Wheat Penny - Die Break&nbsp;\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003C\u002Ftd>\u003C\u002Ftr>\u003Ctr>\u003Ctd>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan>Special Features\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fp>\u003C\u002Ftd>\u003Ctd>\u003Cp>\u003Cspan>A raised line or irregular lump on the coin's surface, corresponding to a crack or piece breaking off the working die.
