Happy Wednesday, Came across this in closet collection and needed experts. The coin is in card holder and flipped straight over with reverse rotation strike, cud on obverse in two locations. Any help would be appreciated.
The coin both obv. and rev. is not properly centered in the coin holder . Turn the obv clockwise a little and the rev. should center up good. The tiny die nicks on the obv. don't add any value because they are so common. To be a cud it has to be touching the coin's rim.
IMO your coin looks like it's almost a full 180 degree rotated reverse. Don't have any idea of the value. Maybe some of our error expert can help. If you take the coin out of the 2x2, take a photo of it holding the coin against a mirror, it will be easier to see the rotation.
I believe both the areas on the obverse rim are folded over finned rims. The coin has been circulated to the point that no one can tell what they are unless you can find a reference that says otherwise. Put the coin in a flip and put three staples in one at 12, one at 7 and one at 5 o'clock so we can see the orientation.
Your coin has 2 small collar cuds. The collar was broken, not the die. Also, it shows a lot of radial flow lines indicating to was struck from worn dies. Interesting minor error and I would keep it if I found it, but any additional value is minimal at best (assuming you can even find someone who is willing buy it). Regarding die rotation; your description of the rotation of the pics isn’t clear, but from looking at the misalignment of the 2x2 holder, it looks like the coin is normal. The “ONE DIME” on the reverse should be opposite the top of Roosevelts head on the obverse on a normal strike. This is called “coin alignment”.
I based my opinion of a rotated reverse thinking it was flipped side to side. I thought that by the small space between the bottom of the coin, to the bottom of the holder. Maybe the holder looks like that when it's flipped top to bottom. Hope the OP answers the question.
As far as rotated reverses, find a mirror, hold the coin obverse facing you and oriented properly, and close to the mirror as you can get, and take a picture close that ideally covers the front of the coin, and the reflection of the reverse of the coin at the same time in one picture. it's the only real way to tell the degree of rotation from a picture, that can't be "staged" like two pictures can be. this will give the real impression of the obverse/reverse alignments. as far as the obverse, those are two very minor rim cuds and not a folded rim fin. worthy of a 2x2 and saving as an example of rim cuds, but very minor compared to other larger rim cuds or cuds that affect the die as well, and not much added to it if at all for value, Still, nice, I'd have it in my collection if I found it for sure!
