Hinkle Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Hello everyone, came across this and thought I would share. I'm trying to figure out exact how many degrees this is rotated. I was hoping someone might know. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenstang Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 The Obverse is not perfectly straight so that will make the rotation even less. Without checking it, In would say that it is about a 10° rotation. Not enough to add any value but a keeper as an example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you greenstang, I have another one but the reverse is going the other way. Does that make a difference. Just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RWB Posted September 19, 2020 Share Posted September 19, 2020 ...but...maybe it was the obverse die that rotated in the press....? Or.....maybe....the press got unbolted from the floor and everything rotated...? Hmmmmm. Numistmatics is komplekated. kenlee47 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Frishberg Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Just eyeballing it looks around 10 degrees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James_OldeTowne Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 To my frequently wrong eye, it looks like more than 10 degrees - perhaps 20? But it isn't worth really anything more than base value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
