    I found an interesting die rotation? (I think) where there are entire features that are slanted on the coin. Particularly the In God We Trust.

    The coin in question is the 1900-P. I've lined it up with a 1902-O for reference and mint mark location. 20170917_172149_resized.jpg 20170917_172159_resized.jpg 20170917_172229_resized.jpg 20170917_172153_resized.jpg

    I really don't know quite how to read this. I'm open to knowledge. Thanks in advance!

    Minor die rotation. Nothing more.

    Yes it really needs to be rotated more than that 1900 is to get any premium.

    I doubt it's anything that would significantly enhance its value since its only maybe 5° off or so, but it is still a neat coin. Die rotations are more common on earlier coins than later coins, but I don't know exactly where Morgans place on that spectrum.

    Wow, that's pretty darn close to medal alignment!
