Today I received a beautiful 1965 cent (unfortunately not pointed!) with a 135 degree rotation. This coin came from a trade set up at Coinexpo with another member of the forum. For those who remember the 25 cent brockage coin that I posted a few weeks ago....it now has a new home.   Edited by Smallcentguy 06/04/2013 6:47 pm

Great coin... but I like your 1944 rotation much better!!

My photo may be slightly off in the rotation....it is pretty much identical to your. Siblings I wonder?

is this common with 1965 pennies, I have 4 rolls unopened that I'm planning on breaking open as there was many varieties this year!

This is not at all common. I know of at least one other 1965 with a very large rotation. But just the three that I know.

Years back when I bought this coin off a dealer he told me he lucked out by finding a few different rotations in a new roll.This was the highest degree of rotation found.I did see hands on a 90 degree to the left that he had.

I know of a 1965 LB about 90 degrees to the left and another at 165 degrees to the left. I suspect these were progressively produced from a loosened die?
