A picture of the entire coin would have been helpful. It looks to me about 40-50% off center.

Also pictures of the entire coin with some marking of the 2x2 or a staple placement can determine how much the coin is rotated if at all. I have a few 2 cent pieces, 1864 and 1865 that are rotated 180 degrees. And an Indian Cent.

Thank you Mr. Garynaples....I will do this. I realized my first mistake was photo w/coin in holder. It's actually the first time I was trying to get some info...but I'm a quick learner & what you said about the rotation, helped me, logically too!![And my digital microscope is still new...but think I have the hang of it now...been playing & practicing w/it. Really neat!] Lol. Thanks...I will post the new pic.s shortly here. REALLY appreciate your help!!!! astralea1692

Hey there Mr Garynaples...Hope I've managed what you requested of me. I was not quite sure on the rotation directions, [first I've tried that scenario] but I turned the coin over, exactly as it was laid, without turning/rotating or moving it out of sync. Also added full view pic.s ...Hope it helps? Thank you, kindly~
