Draw a line on the holder using something as a straight edge and then revisit. Too hard to tell for certain with the way it shown.

It does look as if it might be rotated. If you held the obverse facing you and got it straight and then flipped it over it looks as though the reverse wouldn't line up straight. Hard to tell from the pics though. Anybody else notice this on their coin?

Doesn't look rotated to me. I'm drawing a line from the top of the lower left staple in picture one to the bottom of the upper right staple. Then rotate the coin and draw a line from the bottom of the top staple in picture two to the bottom of the lower right staple.

Its not rotated. Since the coin is not placed in the 2X2 in a perfect up and down orientation, the coin looks rotated when you flip the two by two over and over again.

Straighten the coin out in the holder and the "rotation" goes away.

You are looking at the coin relative to the holder and you are not looking at the coins obverse in relation to its reverse.

Thanks,
Bill
