Would you please stop posting these incredible coins, you are making me crazy...just kidding. Wow, more beautiful thalers. Your collection has become an inspiration. I have yet to jump in and buy my first one but I have started looking. I did buy the book you told me about so I have also been reading.

Yeah, Zohar444, you make us feel bad about our collections! Just kidding. haha Very nice Thalers! Why would PCGS make such an odd mistake and have the coins improperly aligned?

I learned that its not PCGS's fault but rather rotation of the coin in the holder.
All that was needed is light tapping on the side and the result is:
