    A space in between the feather and the wing base, on the partially plated example below.... the upturned 13th feather actually looks suspiciously similar to what the second half of the removed outer upper feather would be upturned in the northwest direction. 6FF60E8C-A43C-45FB-9630-28643BB9AAA0.jpeg 08DC1712-8519-46E7-84F7-247E737BEA2C.jpeg

    It's a shame nobody cleaned the eagle droppings off the coin quickly enough.

    It's badly corroded, but OP calls it "partially plated" because of course he does.
