Thank you very much. It's been a long time searching many dialects and machine damage before finding something off the bat I knew for a fact it was a error coin! A PCGS website said the only two of these have sold in the last year, I cannot find a Coin similar to this that has sold on ebay or is currently listed. Does anyone know a site that can tell you the degree of rotation and estimated value? Tyvm I advance!

As for the degree of rotation, it looks like about 80° clockwise, but if you want a more accurate measurement, use a protractor. As for value, I'm not sure. It's a circulated coin, so I doubt it will go for too much.

If you use a protractor or software, make sure the coin orientation is taken into account. Second image shows a medal orientation or side to side flip.

Excluding a few early and special edition coins, All US coins have used a coin orientation or end over end top to bottom flip. Thanks, Doug.

edit: changing "end over end" to say "top to bottom". Would make a reference to horizontal vs vertical flip, but that seems to create more confusion than help a lot of the time.

Yea I'm trying to break myself of the side to side flip habbit, I just got excited and forgot =)

I've posted a few things on the forums as a new error coin hunter and have always been either wrong or got way to excited for nothing. This was the 1st time I was sure of a coin I've found and didnt take the risk of being told it was zinc rot it PMD lol

No zinc rot or PMD worries with this one. Nice find in my opinion. Makes my Top 5 for rotated dies seen this month. Thanks Doug.
