I'm looking at setting up a show and tell at a coin show with my rotations. I have 3
1 1864 90 degrees cw
1 1864 180 degrees cw
1 1865 85 degrees ccw
all amounts are guesses as I don't have a really good measuring device
I was wanting any info anyone can give me on 2 cent rotations.
thanks

I'm working on a full clock rotation set, I'll have to check my 2¢ pieces to see what all I have at the moment. 180 seems to show up more regularly than others from my experience in looking for them.

The 1864 180 degree rotation variety seems to make up about 5 to 10% of all the 1864's. It is VERY common.
