[QUOTE="cpm9ball, post: 2640243, member: 24633"]First, it is better if you use a 2x2 designed for the cent. The one that you used is probably for a quarter. The problem is that the coin can move inside the larger space and make your calculation inaccurate. You should also know that most dealers don't really care about rotated dies of less than 90 degrees, but if it is your desire to save those less than 90 degrees, then your complaint about using the 2x2 to measure the degree of rotation being time-consuming is rather moot. If you're going to save them, they might as well be in a 2x2 anyway. Did you plan to use some other method of storage? FWIW, I still consider using the 2x2 with the circular mylar opening the easiest way to calculate the degree of rotation because it is like the face of a clock. Each minute represents 6 degrees; each hour represents 30 degrees. You can't get any easier than that. Chris[/QUOTE]
