    This is in a 1973 US Proof set I got yesterday. The reverse appears slightly rotated.

    Is the reverse rotated enough to command a premium if ever sold? Any guesses on degree of rotation? IMG_0001-horz_opt.jpg

    Thanks again....Mont.

    US Mint tolerance is 27 degrees.

    Your proof nickel is well within that -
    so it's not a rotated reverse.

    The picture of the Obverse of your Nickel is not straight. Turn it a bit more to the right and the Reverse side should properly align as well.
