Finally was able find a decent one, in decent condition at an affordable price. I am bad at figuring out the degree of rotation, can you all help out? The reverse (if the pics display correctly) was flipped top to bottom. Also, please excuse the flip. Realized I was out of ones for nickels just a few ago!   Edited by ElonU

I was gonna guess a little over 90...

Here ya go Elon - you can copy this and print it out (90° would have the memorial straight up and down - yours is slightly more)  |

Estimate 95° CW by current reverse image. Thanks, Doug.  |

Is that a nickel in a cent holder? Seems like the 2X2 is too small?

I try to put them in the next size larger. Cent in a Nickel 2X2. Nickel in a Quarter 2X2, so you can see the rim and a bit of the edge if necessary.

Yup Coop. I'm out of quarters too. I apparently only have the size at the moment in the coin I generally don't collect.....cents.

Nice Rotated Die! Maybe it's rotated 92 degrees?

Nice coin, wow! Now on the degrees of die rotation do we use magnetic north or true north? Degrees or mills? I think the coins reverse is sideways harhar. Good buy on that nickel, havnt seen a good one like that in awhile.

I agree it is somewhere around 90° CW, give or take a few degrees. Nice find!  In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020
