mdpmedia Pillar of the Community United States 3546 Posts	Posted 09/12/2011 10:12 pm Hi, This large cent appears to have a rotated die. The reverse shot was taken by flipping the coin over along the same y axis so as to simulate the exact degree of rotation. I would like to know the grade and if this rotation is significant enough to add additional collector value to this coin. Approximately what % increase over the normal non rotated coin price should one expect? Thank you, mdpmedia Report this Post to the Staff

I was wondering if you found any info on the value of a rotated die with this type of coin? I also put these shots of my 1828 rotated reverse next to my 1826 regular reverse.

jpbone Pillar of the Community United States 1959 Posts	Posted 05/16/2013 11:11 pm Hello. The die rotation is common and adds no value in this instance. These coins are in the good details area. The significance of the "details" designation is that it means the coin has detracting/negative issues other than natural wear and toning. The first coin is heavily corroded and the second is scratched. Both would receive a "details" grade. Some things that might cause a coin to be labeled as "details" are: Cleaning Burnished Whizzed Corroded Environmental damage Scratches Graffiti Among others, these issues would cause a coin to be valued lower than an otherwise problem free coin. Personally, I don't buy coins with a details designation, but many people do. I hope this helps. Report this Post to the Staff
