Hi Everyone, I'm new to the Coin Community and excited to be here. I really enjoy reading through the posts. I just wanted to make my first post and share this recent find with y'all. I tried to rotate the coin as straight as possible so the obverse and reverse was correctly oriented, should be really close.  |

Guessing this is not enough rotation to merit a premium. Also, is this coin damaged/bent?  to the CCF! |

Hi Coinfrog,
There is a slight indentation through the center. Likely post mint damage but I'm certainly no expert.
Thanks

From what I can see, this is just a cull, worth less than 50 cents.

Looks like a minor rotated die. You can prop the coin up and photo in front of a mirror to show it as well. I'd hand on to it as your first error, even though minor and damaged. Welcome.

This should be N27 - many were struck with this rotated die. So many that the die must have been fixed in this position for some time.

When you took the pic of the reverse, did you filp the coin heads-over-trails or side-to-side? It makes a big difference.

Thanks for the additional info Robbudo. Coin was flipped heads-over-tails.

Since it was rotated heads-over-tails, this coin is rotated about 170 degrees. The rotated die census lists the 1907 rotated IHCs as an R5, meaning there are 31-80 examples believed to survive with rotations between 90 and 180 degrees. I have 20 different years (!) of IHCs with rotations between 90 and 180 degrees in my collection. I'd estimate your coin, still a cull, is worth about $5.
