2006 Rotated Columns

[thecentcollector]

Here's a peculiar find while going through my stacks of doubled column coins. Dual-rotated columns, Class I-type rotation. Pics are as follows:

1) Actual coin (sorry for darkness, adjusting settings)
2) Overlay with rotated image (columns match perfectly)

But behold the rotation point... it's in the lower base of the statue!

3) Composite overlay with offset and rotation

Enjoy!

Wow. I don't know why but I was kind of surprised by it. I never thought or realized that kind of rotation could occur with a single squeeze process. Like Jean said, great find and presentation. You know Andrew, your getting me excited about these doubled coulmns again...

There have been varying degrees of tilt associated with these columns. The coin below is another example of how extreme it can be. This one has a horizontal column running through the statue.
