Hello Coin Scavenger

Your coin is misaligned the obverse side.

Looked at the photo.

Oops...
I was selling that on ebay thanks for saving me. Still rotated but not enough for a rotation designation. Concentrating on getting the top right didn't notice the bottom was so far off. Thanks.

Still listed just removed the rotation comments. What was the minimum degree of rotation to warrant a rotation error?

1940 and 1941 are commonly found with up to a 20 degree rotation. Not sure what the mint tolerances were back then, many have speculated that 10 to 15% rotation error was within tolerances.

So 36 to 54 degrees is still within tolerance?

Hi
To check if your coin is well aligned simply checked in this die clash list.

All the Canadian coin are present.

You can also print this or photo print on corners and paste afterwards on a 2X2.
