I picked this up today! Rotated Die 10 cent.

I picked this up for about 60 dollars. Not bad! I have seen this same coin in ms64 sell for over 100 in the past. Mine has a rotated die as well which could add value!

    Usually for rotated dies the value is for coins rotated between 90 and 180 degrees. Less than 15 percent rotation on any coin has no premium. Yours may be over 15 percent but I don't think much added value if any.

    US Mint tolerance is 27°-And although most collectors want at least 90° rotation – there are some that would pay a premium for a minimum 45° rotated coin

    I didn’t expect it to add much value but I think it’s cool for my collection of ten centavos

    Nice coin, in any case. No idea on value but for $60 it seems like a nice pick up.

    For some reason this coin has a volatile price. I’ve seen a ms64 sell for 50 all the way to 250 dollars

    I suspect the collector base is still a little thin on these. But it's still a legitimate US territorial issue.

    Rotated coins have sparked an interest for me since I started collecting many decades ago.
    I still do not own one.

    The coin itself is nice but the rotation probably adds little if any value.

    All glory is fleeting.

    Nice coin.... I have seen a dedicated market for the Philippine coins. The minor rotation is interesting, but will not add a significant premium. Cheers, RickO
