Why do I get undefined coming up????? when I try to post a reply????
With regard to how an upset coin is described I have decided to:
Align the reverse vertically and when flipped to describe the degree it is upset as always less than or equal to 180 with the rotation as being either clockwise or anti-clockwise.
Thank you to all who replied to my question

I wish to thank all who have replied to my inital query - all your replies have been informative and demonstrate the depth of knowledge that collectively is available.
I do have other questions that I hope members of this forum can respond to in like manner. The dates in these questions refer to the dates in the PENNY section of McConnelly's book on predecimal varieties. I do know that I have seen, some time ago, answers to some of these questions but, for the life of me, am unable to find the references now. I am hoping someone can help as I, preferably, do not wish to reinvent the wheel.
How do you determine whether or not a date is wide e.g. 1911, 1913 and other dates?
How do you determine whether a coin is tilted left/right e.g. 1914, 1915 etc?
Other questions may follow later

Why do two of my posts come up with undefined yet two are OK? What am I doing wrong?

Sorry Markn - I find it difficult to put a picture into words but it is either 90 or 270 as the top of the king's hair/head is vertical initially (12 o'clock) and at 9 o'clock on being flipped. The other question remains - Do you measure degree of  unusual (word now coming) upset(edness?) in terms of clockwise or counter-clockwise?

Sorry about the first posting - my question is: "How do you determine the degree of upset in an upset coin? Is it in a clockwise or counter-clockwise direction?"
The coin under discussion has the reverse vertical initially but when when flipped fhe king's head is facing down (towards 6 o'clock). Is the degree of upset 90 or 270?
