A better way to show the rotated coins are with a mirror: ))_tropica_60783.jpg)   Note how different ones figured out how to show this with their different setups. Normal U.S. coins will be rotated 180 degrees on each side of the coin:  Edited by coop

Congratulations! What a cool find! I really hope to find one of those one day. There is no putting those aside to check later. It either is or it isn't...known right away.

So, I am not familiar with rotated dies at all and have come up with a very rudimentary pic of my coin over a rotational degree diagram from "rotateddies.com". Is this rotated approximately 165 degrees? I know my method is not perfect but just trying to get an idea. John1 provided a link that I was working with, thank you John1. Thanks for any help.   -makecents-

@ Make: Nice work you done congrat. Look on my previous posts you will find another one also. Hope my manufacture will finish the job and tests soon to can put on the market a gauche for this. Combine the both.
What I see it is 20 deg rotation. Nice rotation.

Thanks, silviosi! I guess I'm not getting it. If it were 20 degrees, it would only be off a little, right? Mine looks to be almost opposite of normal orientation. I'll think on this, today at work.

@ijn modest? It's almost 180° lol. Look more closely.
@makecents great find! Shame it's on a slightly corroded zincoln, but that is still an amazing one. Best I've ever found was about 70°. This looks like 160-170. Might want to put the degree of rotation in the title if there's time to edit, since a lot of people seem to be misunderstanding and thinking it's a minor rotated die.

On the added image above on the first post, if normal, it would have been upside down. But a nicer rotation than 20 degrees. (image from the top, #4) 160 degree rotation.

Alright then, thank you, Sam and coop! I thought I was losing it, for awhile.... I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer but thought I understood what I had and now you guys have confirmed this. Thanks!
