These errors are overlooked a lot, and I think it may be because people don't realize that they can bring in a premium, even if it is a small one. It's good to have collectors helping to spread the word and get others interested in things like this. Thanks Blueridge and E&V!

But this coin is rotated less than 45 degrees. Which makes it common. Unless it is over 45 degrees they are not noticed at all. No where worth what that book says. A 90 Degree and 180 degree are worth a lot more than this coin. The example in the book is rotated a lot more than the example here.

No Coop, it's not. It's rotated by 165 degrees. I flipped from top to bottom exactly. If it was rotated by 45 degrees, the reverse wouldn't be upside down. Please take another look. It was flipped from top to bottom correctly!

Do the mirror image. That will show us what it is.
This is what a normal rotation looks like:

Here's the picture Coop. I'll retake it at a later time, if it's too poor (didn't have good lighting, since it's night time in my area. I know that I am not supposed to hold the coin with nail clippers, but I made sure that it only touched the holder and not the coin.

The new pic shows the degree of the rotation which is impressive, versus your original posted images which they did not and I would have thought it was 45 degrees as well. Excellent find.

Thanks. That helps so much more. The first set of images are not showing that. The rotation you had on the images were only show a few degrees.
Just realized looking at your coins image, I needed to edit the one I posted before. I had to mirror image the reverse image.
