    I guess rotation errors on Lincoln cents are fairly common. I've found half a dozen in one box and got $6 to go. However, the most degrees off was only 14, and and low as 4 degrees. Unless you count the one that was 178 degrees off. :meh: so, how about it, too common to be worth more than a cent?

    rickmp Frequently flatulent.

    Show us the 178. If you use a mirror to take the pic, we can see both sides at once.

    Usually it takes 45 degrees to make a difference but I'd like to see the 178 also.

    I'm thinking he meant 358. Was probably making a joke, but got the math wrong. Might be wrong though.

    You're correct. Real premiums start at about 45 degrees of rotation. The ultimate error of this sort is a 180 degree rotation.
