I have determined that my 2006 $50 Gold Proof Buffalo has a 7.5 degree rotated reverse.

This is not considered to be an error as it is within mint tolerences.

But still, I have heard of no other gold PROOF buffs from the year 2006 with that amount of rotation.

Now that many of you have one or have seen one, is this common?

I have no plans on selling it and I enjoy the coin even more now (I think its AWESOME) that I'm sure it's rotated. With the hype and a good ebay hype ad I bet this coin would bring a very nice premium.....but I will never know unless someone else sells one as this one is MINE.

Have fun looking.

Just one question: how did you managed to determine the exact 7.5 degrees rotation?

I measured 3 times with a protractor and once through photography. My mesurements were 8 7 7 8 so the average was 7.5 which is an educated guess I guess.
