    That means it's a rotated die. Depending on just how rotated, it may bring a modest premium.

    Do any of you guys remember the episode of Andy Griffith where Andy was going to sell Barney the Buffalo Nickel? I couldn't help but think of that episode after reading this thread.

    Surge, this is not a slam of your question by any stretch of the imagination. Just reminded me of ol' Barney Fife and the nickel.
