Question
So you know that when you take a new state quarter and turn it end over end it will always face the same direction?  I have a penn state quarter that when the face is foward and straight up turned end over end the back side is 90 degress to the right. What is the value of a coin like that?

Answer
Jenifer,

Your rotated die error coin could be worth $200 or more (depending on condition of the coin) IF you get it certified.

Check out the following certification services for info about how to get it certified :

Expertise

My strong familiarity with all U.S. Mint coins, extensive reference library, and close relationships with many other dealers allows me to identify just about any coin made in the USA. I receive regular updates to all the current price guides -- both wholesale & retail -- to provide accurate values. So, with a good description or pictures, I should be able to identify and value any U.S. coin you have.

Experience

I've been a coin dealer since the 1980's and a coin collector since the 1960's. I specialize in U.S. Silver Coins and have an active online website -- The Working Man's Rare Coins -- http://www.workingmancoins.com -- offering information and inventory in U.S. coins.
