You have what's called an off-center strike. The error occurs when a coin blank (planchet) doesn't center itself correctly in the collar used to hold the blank while the press strikes the images on the front and back.
The more off-center the coin, the more it's worth, so my guess would be that your coin is worth no more than a couple of dollars. It's still interesting to have as a conversation piece, however.
