How Many Wounded Eagles Do You Guys Think Are Actually Out There?

Hey guys, so I keep reading that only around 200 specimens have been reported but I've found 2 within a month! The most recent one I just found looks MS, a few dings but other than that its perfect, luster is amazing, looks to have came straight from the mint! Needless to say they came from the same branch. What are your opinions?

There were more than 767 million of the Sac dollars struck in Philly. Let's assume that this rather small anomaly went undetected by Mint employees. That means there could have been tens of thousands or more of them struck without being noticed.

The HUNT is on!

 

Why?

 

I found 2 within a month.

 

1 AU, my latest addition possibly MS

 

so now there are 202.. great, the more that are found the less rare and less valuable they become

sorry to say

 

are you sure those are true wounded eagles??

 

I'm sure YouTube told him they were true.

 

Positive.

 

Here is my latest one.

 

I know this, but at the moment they still have a pretty decent premium.

 

No, my eyes and loop told me they were true. Hop off the thread if you don't have anything positive to spread.

 

More than 200, or 202 I think.

 

What are the diagnostics that make it a "wounded eagle"?

 

Its a Sacagawea error variety coin.

 

Die gouge going through the birds belly

 

Looks like a spear went clean through the Eagles breasts.

 

That is an impressive die gouge.
