The pictures are not that good- its a pretty beat up coin, but it is a rotated die error- I measured it off by approx 21 degrees using a protractor.

Not a major error of 90 Degrees plus, but still looks pretty nice despite its condition.

One of those those things that's hard to prove with a picture.

Now for the real questions, is this one a rotated obverse die or a rotated reverse die?
