    I got alot of these almost all the pennies in the roll I got are kinda like this or more turned
    can anyone tell me what this is? is it a rotated die and would it be worth anything?

    Hard to tell by the pics. I would suggest proping it up close to a mirror and getting a pic of obv. and rev. at the same time.

    it's in the same coin in the same holder all I did was flip it around and snap another pic
    i lined up the wheat cent so the "ONE CENT" on the reverse would be straight side to side and stapled it up. so that this way the coin will show the misalignment on the front of it

    I must have a real treasure here if pretty much everyone can't post about it...

    We do not know what you have. Where is the word "error" on the reverse of the coin? Is it on the top left?

    Appears to be about a 10-15 degree rotation, and not a premium coin $$$ wise, just a neat oddity.

    For those of you missing this, look at the reverse, it is timed correctly to the holder while the obverse appears crooked in the holder......this is the best way to clock die rotations. Not rare or valuable, but took a good eye to spot it. Congrats !

    yea it's rotated
    what's a premium rotated coin in degrees start at?
    and what would you value this coin at? more then a penny?
    and did the mint use to make alot these kind of errors?

    Minor rotations are pretty common in the 20's decade. There is no premium.

    Something approaching 45 or more degrees MIGHT nudge an error collector into buying on a cherry pic. A true 180 will fetch money tho.

    I have shown Magman a roll of 24-D's in which at least half the coins had some rotation. Common as dirt unfortunatly.
