Here are photos of some rotated cents. Apologies in advance for the bad photography! if you like rotations, I hope you like these. Here is a nice red 1940 cent with a decent rotation...  This 1941 still has a bit of lustre to it...  Here is a more modern rotation....  This 1940 has a bit more rotation than the last one....getting to be quite a nice rotation.  This 1937 is getting pretty close to 45 degrees....  Now for some more serious spins.... 1968....  1978....  1997....  And, finally, a perfectly inverted 1944....  |

Die rotations are one of my more favourite varieties. Some of those at the end are awesome!

1944 I think is a year that a 1-cent die came loose and rotated around. I have one rotated 90 degrees, and there are several out there rotated up to 180 degrees.
I just bought a 10c coin, 1964 with the reverse rotated 270 degrees. I think it is MS-62, and heading for a CCCS hard holder. Photos will be posted, eventually...

If I rummage around my desk, I think I can beat that with one rotated 720 degrees!

Nice rotations, Smallcentguy! Nicest collection of them I've seen in a long time.  And I hate to rain on your parade, wert, but it may appear -- that is, possibly -- I don't want to speak rashly until they're fully authenticated mind you -- but it seems... that I may actually own a whole ROLL of those sweet 360's! >gasp!< |
