    Just tilt the slab a little to your left and you'll see how it looks like it is diving. image

    I have seen diving goose coins, this isn't one. I believe PCGS would have stated so on the slab if it was.

    Some of these Dollars have a rotated die so the goose looks like it is diving. I really don't think this is one of them.

    I thought there was more of a rotation than what is featured here but I am not an expert on this error

    Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.

    I'm no expert on dollars, but I think the diving goose variety has about a 45-50 degree die rotation.

    No this is not a diving goose the angle of the goose is not correct. I also agree PCGS would have labled it so as well. Looks like yet another trying to pull as fast one.image

    Maybe if Jacques Cousteau was still around he could authenticate if it is truly a 'Diving Goose" image

    I agree, this coin looks like it is just a slightly rotated die (I'm also not an expert on dollars, though).

    It is certainly not a diving goose. Rotated die with less than 15 degrees usually are not interested by most collectors.
