robbudo Pillar of the Community United States 2759 Posts	Posted 08/10/2010 5:39 pm According to the Rotateddies census, between 81 and 200 Half Cents from 1808 were minted with rotated dies between 90 and 180 degrees. This coin gets a R-4 rating for rarity based on the rotation alone. Nice coin. Report this Post to the Staff

Robbudo - can you tell me where you find the rotated dies census? I was unaware of such a database, but have quite a few rotated dies - some near 180 and would be curious to know if they have significant added value. Thanks for any help you can provide. Can a coin be rotated over 180 degrees? I have always thought the answer to that would be "no". Please advise. Report this Post to the Staff
