Last night, I was going through some coins I had put aside years ago. And (re)discovered finds that I had completely forgotten about. I'll have to take pics and post tonight. But among my finds:
    fairly well circulated nickel that the reverse is rotated nearly 180 degress

    a state quarter that I suspect may be struck on a wrong planchet

    1999 wide A M - possibly struck through grease


I have a post under the varieties forum on the wide A M.

Oh, and a cent without the copper coating.

Here is the nickel with nearly 180 degree rotation.

I would say that the rotation shown is near 20 degrees rather than 160 degrees.

The reverse, as photographed, should be upright, but is nearly upside down. That's nearly 180 degrees.
