Has anyone come across a ROTATION DIE ERROR on the 2006 W Reverse Proof Coin? If so, any idea of it's value?
If you are trying to say 'I have an '06 Rev Proof with a rotated die error...can anyone give me an idea of it's value?', then as rockdude states, we'd need to see a picture.
2006 P (not W) reverse proof error I was lucky (?) enough to buy three silver reverse proof eagles, each having a fairly obvious rotated die, but I don't think its rotated enough to be graded and stated on the label. This is my first time doing this, but I am going to attempt a photo upload of it (sans PCGS ID & barcode). Sorry it isn't a W, but thought someone might have some opinion of this.
It looks rotated to me based on your pics. The fact that all 3 of yours have this rotation may mean that it is fairly common. I will have to check out mine more closely. Nice finds. TC
The Mint tolerance for rotated dies is 7 degrees, and most rotated dies don't take on added value under 15 degrees. There usually isn't any appreciable increase in value until a rotated die gets to 45 degrees. Chris
Thank you for the input TC ... by the way, all 3 were bought from the same (blind?) person and the numbers on the PCGS slabs are sequential (ending in 732, 734 & 736), so I'm not sure about it being all that common. I have seen some in auctions online - one or two over the past year - that are rotated approximately 5 degrees or so. By the way, does anyone know any hard and fast rules regarding what point (how many degrees) rotation is required before a TPG will note it on a slab? I saw the 45 degree opinion, and one dealer who specializes in errors told me via email: The coin is rotated, but well within the 30 degree tolerance of Mint standards. Yes, it is scarcer than a BU, but although interesting as a Proof, it's not Rotated enough to be collectable to most error collectors. R ###]---->
