Hey guys, recently I found old Italian curency coin called Lira from 1978. I noticed that coin has die rotation error. Can anyone tell me is there some value to this coin ? Thanks in advance

First, in terms of the age of a coin, 1978 is not old
I was 36 years old then.
(I'm now 81. I guess I can all that old )

I call 1978 coins "modern".
The rotation looks to be about 20°.
For a modern coin that is not a lot.
Modern coins are not interesting until the rotation is about 45° or more.

I agree with kanga. I don't think even old coins get much premium less than 45°.
