SwoonPoon New Member United States 23 Posts	Posted 10/21/2020 12:57 am This looks like a legitimate D/D mark with more than a 90 degree rotation. Just some random change searching lead me to this today. I could not find many other examples like mine with the same year, but I have found one other online that closely resembles what I am seeing here (See link at the bottom for the example I am referring to).

The person selling that coin is misinformed or has no clue what he or she is doing. Now lets talk about the rotated reverse. that's a almost a full rotation buy the looks of it from your picture. That's a keeper nice find congrats. Report this Post to the Staff

Spence Moderator United States 34428 Posts	Posted 10/21/2020 05:55 am @john, in my reading of this thread, I think that the OP was stating that the "RPM" was rotated (as opposed to the entire side of the coin).

RobO411 Pillar of the Community United States 2404 Posts	Posted 10/21/2020 11:08 pm I thought SwoonPoon was talking about the coin rotation also. I wondered how the flip was turned. Up and over or side to side? I find the mirror picture is best for checking rotation percentage. I agree about the zinc problem. Report this Post to the Staff
