TIA Tina Do you mean that it is rotated somewhat from a strict 180 degrees? If so, by how much? Small increments of rotation are fairly common. Look at a set of Lincolns in an album sometime where you can see both sides of the coins. Usually collectors will align the date and LIBERTY horizontally and allow the reverses to align or misalign as they will. Mr. Jaggers |

The value would depend on the condition of the coin and the degree to which it was misaligned. http://www.coinworld.com/NewCollecto...eVarieties.asp jim menning |
