Need help with actual degree of rotation and possible grade if the photo is good enough. I would like to add accurate information to the coin holder. Thank you in advance.   |

Not as costly as my 360 degree 1945 nickel rotation..  HAHA...KIDDING..COULDN'T RESIST. I am not sure about the value, but look on ebay and see what they are getting for rotation less than your rotated coin. |

Always hard asking the value of a coin on the forum. I find it to be the taboo question. Without a value it's like a hockey pool with no points.

Not taboo...just hard to say.
My 2013 Charlton says $400 in AU55 for upset dies; no values for lower grades. I don't know how they came up with a range of catalogue values for such a scarce coin.
ICCS would not certify that as upset dies; they would call it rotated. Buyers would likely not pay as much for 167 degrees as for 180.
One that I recall was 180 degrees was sold a couple of years back by a dealer who occasionally posted on another now-nearly-dead coin web site. I think he asked $1500 for his and presumably got less.
Kind of hard to say what it is worth. My guess would be $200 to $500 but it would totally depend on the luck of the auction.

you have to remember coin scavenger that errors or worth what error collectors are willing to pay. Because each one is unique, it's hard to put a true price to it. I would pay $10 for a 45 degree, $20 for a 90 degree and maybe up to $40 for yours. the 60's are full of die rotations so if it was a different decade maybe worth even more. that is what it is worth to me. cheers.

There was a 1967 nickel upset die graded by ICCS PL6? sold by TCNC in March sale for 3500.00 plus juice and HST. I have a 1989 dime ICCS ms 63 upset die so ICCS does grade some errors.
