Just found this one roll hunting. Probably thrown back because of the damage on it, but I'm keeping it. Would like to know it's value or is the damage too much for it to have a premium? Also would like to know the grade, in Good it lists at $2.50 in the price guide I have but with the damage? Thank you in advance for any help you can provide. Also would like to know what degree of rotation.

Looks like a good bit of rotation. I posted my first rotated Lincoln a few days ago. It should have a premium to it since it looks like a lot of rotation.

With the obverse horizontal to the world, it isn't easy to see how much this coin is rotated. I would need to see a level obverse to see how much this coin is rotated before I comment.

Try this;

Kind of a crude way of showing the degree of rotation but here it is.

That is what I want and also include what the reverse looks like in relation to the obverse on the 2X2. But you have the idea rockdude.

I can't tell either. Try the other suggestions given to see if it comes out better.

Another thing to note is that minor rotation is rather common on early date Lincolns. Up to 10, even 20 degrees is completely normal.
