cownick Pillar of the Community Canada 677 Posts	Posted 08/04/2011 9:32 pm Just for fun I went through an old coin binder from years ago. I found a few die rotated coins. These are, 1951 10 cent 14.5 degrees 1940 1 cent 22 degrees 1940 1 cent 32 degrees 1943 5 cent tombac 27 degrees Thought I would share in the excitement. Report this Post to the Staff

staircase Valued Member Canada 241 Posts	Posted 08/06/2011 02:33 am Hi there. Thanks for sharing your info! It's great fun to find them. The 40's had so many rotational problems in all denominations. The half dollar ones in particular are diffult to find. Edited by staircase 08/06/2011 02:36 am Report this Post to the Staff
dukester New Member Canada 24 Posts	Posted 08/17/2011 12:25 am What is the process for finding a die rotation? The coin must be flipped from obverse to reverse but how do you do this so you can find a slight rotation? I hope this makes sense. Dukester. Report this Post to the Staff
biggfredd Rest in Peace United States 9104 Posts	Posted 08/17/2011 01:39 am Simplest way is to line the obversse up in a square 2x2 and put them in a plastic sheet. When you turn the page, rotations will become obvious. Report this Post to the Staff
