It looks like a legit rotated die to me.  In Memory of Crazyb0 12-26-1951 to 7-27-2020

Awesome purchase! That's a very nice Rotated Die! How much did you pay for this error coin?
Errers and Varietys.

He looks very nice!  I am not familiar with this particular rotation. I would defer to a more expert opinion to be sure. |

I am familiar with the rotated die census site. My rotation isn't listed although a 1976-S 40% Ike in unc is at 130 degrees CCW. In comparison, mine would be 270 degrees ccw. It is worth noting that the site hasn't been updated since 2013.

In the modern era, it seems that the die rotation is either caught early, or the coins minted from the rotated die are destroyed en masse, hence very few out there, otherwise there would be tens of thousands from a rotated die released. Is my logic correct? I guess the other option would be bags and bags of them sitting in vaults.

Thought I should show both obverse and reverse at same time. Also, this coin would have been originally packaged as a 3 coin cellophane set issued by the U.S. Mint.  Edited by Zimmy

Based on your pic and the orientations in your first post, I would say it is rotated approximately 90° CCW. Technically, that's the same as 270° CW, but I think choosing the lowest number is most reasonable.

Is the e mail address to send in new finds still valid on the rotated die site?
