CoinAdvocate Valued Member United States 141 Posts	Posted 06/05/2018 8:50 pm Found a rotated die 1844 O Half Dime today with approximately 170 degree rotation. Kind of a beat up coin but I like that it has the error. Pretty happy with the find! Would this coin even have a grade or is it corroded? Lemme know what you guys think? Thanks everyone CoinAdvocate It is not enough to merely enjoy coins; one must Advocate for them! Report this Post to the Staff

BigSilver Pillar of the Community United States 2843 Posts	Posted 06/05/2018 9:45 pm That is a rare enough coin without the rotation. I would say - cool find, but not much added value. Report this Post to the Staff
CoinAdvocate Valued Member United States 141 Posts	Posted 06/05/2018 9:46 pm I oriented my pictures straight up and down, but yes I did the flips correctly and it's just short of 180. I've seen the chart you've offered others Mark and I'm waiting for access to the printer to give you all an exact number. Nonetheless it is about 170.

Conder101 Bedrock of the Community United States 17884 Posts	Posted 06/06/2018 10:44 am The 1844 O is, I believe, USUALLY seen with this rotation. On the other hand it is a nice semi-key date. (in a series with a lot of key dates) Report this Post to the Staff
