That's too bad Andrew - was hoping that you got the flip correct to make the determination. As noted by slamn, making sure that your placement into the flip is square with an edge is important. Adding the staples also helps with determining alignment and registration by the members.
Small rotational errors for this date are plentiful but carry no additional premium. If you are looking for rotational errors, they can exist on just about any date coin but having one 45 degrees or larger are the most desired (yours would be considered 'within tolerances' by the mint). Here are the dates/mm that I look for and are generally recognized as 'good years' for LMC rotational errors: 1966, 1972D, 1973D, 1982, 1983, 1993D, 1994, 2002. I've not compiled a LWC listing as I've not located resources to do so yet. But this site lists 5 dates for you to consider: http://rotateddies.50webs.com/census.htm
Good luck on the hunt!
