The edge lettering is randomly oriented- about 50/50 up or down. When first released, people were selling upside down edge letters as errors when they obviously were not  |

The new dollar coins have edge lettering on them (see bobby131313's link above) and sometimes the lettering can be read with the face (obverse) side up or with the tails (reverse)side up (upside down). It's by random chance which way the lettering faces. Oddly enough, PSEG (a major third party grader) has officially recognized this as a grading feature: http://www.pcgs.com/articles/articl...iverseid=313 |

Reminds me of a "blonde" joke where she wonders why all the M&M's say "W" on them!

I heard the Mint put some of them on upside down so our Aussie friends could read them from down under?

Ahhh that's so sweet of them to do that for the Aussies. I suppose they flipped those dollars edges too for them.  |
