    I am new to this Forum and I am looking for opinions about a Sacagawea Dollar that I found. I researched in many places and compared the "Wounded Eagle" to my coin and the location and size of the "Wound" is different than mine although I do see traces my wound on the other referenced coins. What do you think about this one? Trash or Treasure?

    I'm pretty sure that's just PSD (Post Strike Damage).

    If it were a gouge in the die, then it would be sticking up from the eagle's breast (remember the die is inverse, what is low spots on the die are high spots on the coin and vice versa).

    Yes I completely agree and although the pictures don't clearly show it, that is not a valley on the coin but a raised line. The line is sticking up proudly over the eagles breast and lightly continues into the wings plumage. This is not a scratch or post mint contact mark!

    You can't prove it by me.

    This was taken extremely close and at an angle so you can see that is not a valley or post mint contact mark.
