[QUOTE="ToddB67, post: 568925, member: 18134"]Attached are obverse and reverse pics of my 1988P U.S. Washington Quarter. The obverse looks like the die was mis-aligned with the planchet (See coin rim.) Do you agree ? I have 2006 copies of the Red Book and Strike It Rich With Pocket Change, (Error Coins), by Allen & Potter, but neither mentions that this coin has been found as a mis-aligned, as per my example obverse pic.. Could this coin be a rare/valuable find ? Also, I have a general question. When turning a U.S. coin to see if the obverse and reverse images are seriously rotated, am I correct that you hold either side so that the image is vertically aligned, then turn the coin over in a South to North (or vice versa, North to South) direction, as apposed to E. to W. or W.to E. ? [I]Hope I made this clear[/I]. ;) Thanks, Todd[/QUOTE]
