Haha, you certainly have an eye for detail, Zac!
I once read on Numista that there exist several varieties on the edge of the UK 10p from 1992. Only I can't figure out what they all mean!
Could you explain me those varieties with pictures?

2) Or in DEI GRA the A is an upside-down V ?! They must have used letter A as there is one in CAROLVS

I do find the occasional rotation error on UK 50 Pence, but they are usually rotated slightly to the right, and one side mostly. This is both sides and they are to the left. I do wonder whether I am a weirdo though, as how come I noticed this in pocket change, whereas it has already been circulating 16 years.
Oh, and all previous errors are just rotation, but this also has a scuff mark (see yellow arrow) in all angles. Not sure what caused it but must be something to do with the error.

Hey daryl, I'm not that into error coins really, I prefer to have a good strike I just saw it and found it amusing unless it were a serious error like a Mis-matched die or a highly worn that's cracked, but it would still look for a perfect one !

Greece 10 Drachmes 1986 (back) by Trabantje601, on Flickr
So I guess this coin has the same problem as ALLRED's, only a bit less exaggerated.
Also, here's a picture of a Belgium 5ct with extra pieces of metal on it, found it a week ago in my change.
Not really that rare, because Belgium eurocoins tend to have more of these errors than eurocoins of other countries. Still a find pocket change find though! :)

Nothing out of the ordinary with the Reverse for this common -yet uncommon date- COIN. Not in the best of condition either.
But then, there is the Obverse:
