Canadian rotated die errors.

I have two 1852 Bank of Upper Canada Half-Penny Tokens.
One is like a normal Canadian coin, the other is like a U.S coin, you have to flip it head over heels to keep the reverse upright.
I also have a 1857 Bank of Upper Canada Half-Penny Token that's like a U.S coin, you have to flip it head over heels to keep the reverse upright.
Did the mint care about reverse position on these or do I have 2 rotated die errors?
Are they common or do they add a buck or two to the price?
Thanks,
Glenn
