Coin orientation - 1 reference result
Coin orientation (or coin alignment or variations of these) is a feature of coins. When viewing one side of a coin with coin orientation, correct side up, the coin must be flipped about its horizontal axis in order to see the other side the correct way up. In other words, the image on one face of the coin is upside-down relative to the other.
Coins with coin orientation include United States coinage, South Korean coinage, Thai coinage, Swiss coinage and pre-Euro French coinage.
Compare medallic orientation.
