Answer:

A major feature of the Moon's gravitational field is the presence of mascons, which are large positive gravity anomalies associated with some of the giant impact basins. ... The center of gravity of the Moon does not coincide exactly with its geometric center, but is displaced toward the Earth by about 2 kilometers.

Explanation:

Because the mass of the Earth is two orders of magnitude greater than the mass of the Moon, the centre of gravity of the Earth-Moon system actually lies within the body of the Earth; indeed, it is around 1700 km below the surface of the Earth.
