no pics cause I'm finding 1979 pennies with the left bottom corner of the queen lining up between the first ad in canada while others line up between the last da in ada. is this common as I found a 76 lined up between the first ad and labeled it as a die rotation. if you tell me this is not common, then these two dates may be the two I found rolls of in circulation marked with the dates and only containing those dates. problem is I dont have 50 of each?

Without seeing a pic of the coin it sounds to me to be a 10% off
die rotation which is very common.
For a coin to have any sigificant value it would require the die
to be at least 40% offset of the die..

thank you so 10% isn't worth anymore than a penny?

It would have a very small premium if any, but most collectors of rotated die coins are looking for a larger rotation
