Hello, Thank you for all in the info guys, we really appreciate it!! The term "upset dies" from ICCS is not meaningless. We had a 1982 Confederate dollar graded upset dies from ICCS and it was a perfect 180* rotation on the reverse just like this 1998 5 Cent coin. Here are some further pictures.

So then it's a rotated die error. I have no idea why they would attach an inscrutable term like "upset dies" to this error type.

It's ICCS version of saying a 180 degree rotation

So what do they call a rotated die error that's less than 180 degrees?

Thank you very much.
There was a lot of people who were interested in the scarcity of the coin.

"upset dies" should really be called "coinage axis" as opposed to Canadian coins being "medal axis"
