Are "coin turns" a popular characteristic among Morgan dollars?

I am studying the variable aspects of strikes among Morgan dollars and have found the term "coin turn." Since a VAM is a different characteristic, is a coin turn by an excess number of degrees a popular characteristic among collectors?

I'm not sure what you mean. Are you saying that the coin obverse and reverse are atypical? I think that's called a die rotation. The real intereting ones are off by half -- so I guess that would be 180 degrees. And yes! Those are pretty rare and often sought after.

I have found dozens of dimes that are off by 10 to 15 degrees and since I have found so many I cannot believe that those are rare.

If you found something ....could you post a picture?
It wasn't that long ago when I thought that 'mint error' meant that something was wrong with my candy.

Please limit yourself to one topic on a specific subject. This is no different than your previous thread.
The best thing about a bicycle is that it uses no gasoline, therefore the chance of fiery death is greatly reduced.

First Catman, then Gary Burke and now Bigg Fredd - there's one heck of a coin club in Heaven.
