Ok just seen a post from GS about upset 2001 COF so was wondering what are the harder one's to find, I only have 3 and they are all around the 110 degrees.

I haven't really found enough to know which are the hardest to find, but Goldy should be able to answer your question.  

I do remember someone saying that 180 degrees was the hardest, but I don't know who it was.

Actually that turns out not to be the case.

If you are looking for a clockface a true 11 o'clock (obverse at 330 degrees) is by far the hardest.

Out of about 300 to 400 upsets I've only found 4 at 11 o'clock.

If one is trying to do a clockface as I have done then the hardest ones to find are those that are exactly spaced at the progressive 30 degrees.   IE ! o'clock=30 degrees, 2 o'clock =60 degrees etc.

I have found many in the 0 - 160 degree range but beyond that, not as many.

I wish you luck and before I forget, make a good measuring device for your coins.
