Another coin from my aunt's box. (I suppose all the coins are from her box. Since I don't have one!)

I'm not finding anything on a rotated die for this coin. I cropped my pics so the staples could be used as a reference.

Is rotation significant enough to increase value?

Thank you!

If you put this coin in a plastic 2x2 nickel sixe and use a sharpie to mark the 12 oclock of the King's head and mark the reverse 6 oclock you measure the degrees of rotation

It's a nice example, but it's too minor to carry a premium.

You may want to put the coin back in the holder with "Dei" directly at the top. That should make the X in Rex and G in Geo closer to being in a straight line. Or put the smoke stack directly vertical. The coin is in your holder a little off.

Correction place in a bigger plastic 2x2 so you can see the sharpie marks, like a 25 cents size
