And how can I tell the difference for future reference. Please and thank you. I'm also curious around the eye area. Edited by Shortee 11/04/2021 8:53 pm Report this Post to the Staff

To your coin question, based on your photos, it looks more like a scratch instead of an error, since a die gouge would be raised on the coin, while a scratch would be depressed into the coin. Ironically, you could also have the very popular "wounded Eagle" which is indeed a die gouge located precisely on the eagles midsection, on the reverse, online photos will show you what it looks like.

Shortee Valued Member United States 62 Posts	Posted 11/05/2021 3:55 pm Yes I know of the wounded eagle I've compared mine to pics. I don't believe mine is one. I second guessed my self on the front. The coin itself is not in good condition but I do thank you for the heads up and opinions. Edited by Shortee 11/05/2021 3:58 pm Report this Post to the Staff
