    To be honest, I don't ever remember seeing a modern Lincoln with a rotated reverse, although I'm sure someone more familiar with them will chime in that they are more common than we think.
    I think it's neat too. image

    That is a real nice find. Modern rotated cents I believe are quite scarce and that degree is large.

    Huge rotation! I recall reading that there is a 'tolerance' permitted at the USMint for this, being acceptable within a quality assurance parameter.

    Does anyone know the degrees of rotation acceptable ? I have a rotated 1913 Buffalo, and it took a while to get used to it being an 'OK' coin for me. About 20 degrees.
    Every day is a gift.
