I have this coin, just got it today. I don't have any pictures as of right now, sorry. My question is does the die rotation make this coin more valuable? How much more? The coin is similar to examples I've seen on ebay graded at ms 60+; would it be worth it to get this coin graded? Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

Hello kswiss
Photos would be helpful, of both sides?
How much is the rotation? A little rotation , not really a big deal. The greater the rotation the greater the deal.

Does not look like rotated die to me. The king in those years is usually reclined from what I have seen and not crown straight up.

The lettering on the obverse should be evenly balanced on both sides of the portrait. Yours is too much on the left hand side. rotate the obverse on your coin more clockwise and it will line up more with the reverse.

Hi, kswiss, welcome to CCF, as, stated your coin has to have quite a percentage of rotation to be worth any value, yours doesn't seem to be... keep posting and looking.
