<p>[QUOTE=&quot;The Eidolon, post: 8007020, member: 102103&quot;]I think it depends.&nbsp; For hammered world coins (~1600s), the relative rotation of the two sides was pretty haphazard most of the time, so I doubt that a mismatch would add any significant value.&nbsp; This Cromwell 1/2 crown was rotated by almost 90 degrees off, for example.&nbsp; For modern coins, rotation errors are probably a lot rarer, and should command a premium.&nbsp; It would depend on the issuer, frequency of rotation errors and the strength of the collector&#039;s market for that particular type of coin.[ATTACH=full]1389250[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>I know major off-center hole errors can command a big premium for Japanese coins, for example.&nbsp; Here&#039;s a Taisho year 11 (1922) 10 sen with a modestly off-center hole found by chance.&nbsp; Not dramatic enough to be worth much.&nbsp; Modern Japan errors are scarcer and more collected.&nbsp; But Japan has a well-developed domestic coin collector&#039;s market including for error coins.[ATTACH=full]1389252[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
