oih82w8 Pillar of the Community United States 7840 Posts	Posted 10/26/2010 09:19 am I would say vg-8 to f-12. Nice score from circulation! Report this Post to the Staff

John1 Moderator United States 56855 Posts	Posted 10/26/2010 09:31 am Just put it in a 2x2 and noticed it has a slight counterclockwise rotation. Does this add or decrease it's value.Thanks, John1 Report this Post to the Staff

I'm pretty sure it's fairly normal, and wouldn't think it increases or decreases. That said I'm leaning more to a G4 grade for this coin... there are just too many flat spots and the rims are too weak for a VG coin. Still very cool for circulation :) Report this Post to the Staff
robbudo Pillar of the Community United States 2759 Posts	Posted 10/27/2010 2:33 pm Rotations of up to 20 degrees are really common on nickels (even Buffalo nickels). You need a rotation of at least 45 degrees for some collectors to be interested, I don't collect anything with less than a 90 degree rotation. It's really only the 90 to 180 degree rotations that command a real premium. Report this Post to the Staff
