Nice...Looks like about 58 to 60 degrees...really nice.
SPP, have you seen many die rotations on 50 cent pieces...?
I have one that is only 5.9 degrees,but it is not close to that magical 15 degrees.

The photographs are not perfectly vertical, I originally estimated it to be almost 65 degrees... your software should be able to tell us....
I have not hunted 50c errors. A friend has several 50c silver partial clips, and I have a 1965 proof-like clipped 50c, but I have not seen a major die rotation.

Wert, you have to remember that silver Victorian coinage was struck with coinage axis so that coins is rotated about 37 degrees.
