The aim of this article is to present the interference effects which occur during the time evolution of simple angular wave packets (WP) which can be associated to a diatomic rigid molecule (heteronuclear) or to a quantum rigid body with axial symmetry like a molecule or a nucleus. The time evolution is understood entirely within the frame of fractional revivals discovered by Averbukh and Perelman since the energy spectrum is exactly quadratic. Our objectives are to study how these interference effects differ when there is a change of the initial WP. For this purpose we introduce a two parameter set of angular momentum coherent states. From one hand this set emerge quite naturally from the three dimensional coherent states of the harmonic oscillator, from another hand this set is shown to be buit from intelligent spin states.We have also compared our coherent states to some previously constructed using boson representation of angular momentum. The time evolution of coherent states for symmetric top is also discussed.
