I am trying to find the orientation of the following current
circulation coins. Traditionally, the US uses the terms "coin
alignment" and "medal alignment". However, in the majority of
countries coins and medals are aligned the same way. Therefore, I
prefer to talk of "parallel alignment" (this corresponds to "medal
alignment" in the US) and "contra-alignment" (which corresponds to
"coin alignment" in the US), but use the terms you prefer.

Does anybody know their orientation?
N.B. I should make clear that in my posts regarding orientation, I am
referring to the current (or most recent) circulation coins only.
