Default RTR die error?

Gentlemen!

AA badges are definitely far outside of my period of interest, but a friend just gave this to me so figured I’d keep it as an example. Upon examination, the crown appears significantly off center, the left portion on a the crown with clearly flat material along the edge, while on the right side it appears that the die missed almost completely. The remainder of the badge is struck on center. Is this sort of thing common?
