So I got this coin recently, I realize the coin is really worn and probably not worth much to serious collectors. However, I noticed that the reverse is definitely rotated. I looked online and couldn't really find any other examples like this. Is this coin worth more because of it?
Thanks!

It might be worth something to a low ball collector. It looks like 02, to cash in it would need to be PO 01 in a TPG holder.

To give you an idea what the low ball coin can run. -see link below-

This is a complete hunch, but I would say a rotated die on these is not uncommon.

Thanks! I found it on ebay last week, although I didn't realize until I got it in the mail that the reverse was off! What would you suggest I do with it? Is it something I should get graded and put in a holder?

Does this half have a reeded edge?
