    Judging by this, Gary and I are getting the same result - a 10
    o'clock die axis for Vlack 14-84A.

    Thanks, Roger S., for the report of the die axis on your specimen.

    Could other owners of this variety also check the die axis? Hold
    the coin with the obverse upright - then rotate along the vertical
    axis (understood as an imaginary line joining the "north pole" and
    the "south pole" of the coin) and report to which "o'clock" the top
    of the reverse is pointing. (You will get the same result if you
    start with the reverse upright, instead - an idea that many find
    difficult to grasp intellectually, so they have to learn it
    empirically.)
