Errers and Varietys Bedrock of the Community United States 73984 Posts	Posted 05/07/2018 3:16 pm It's called a Die Rotation (AKA Die Rotation). It happens when the little screws that hold the die in place breaks, causing the die to rotate (there are other causes too that could cause the die to rotate). The only thing though is it needs to be rotated 90 degrees or more to become collectable. If it's less than 90 degrees, then it's not considered collectable. http://www.error-ref.com/rotated_die_error/ Errers and Varietys.
