I just came across this as I've been going through all my state coins...
I think its ~MS66? this guy clearly has TWO die chips going on... for 7 claws... pity the fool that messes with him!
I've checked everywhere, can't find any reporting of this variety on the 6 clawed bear error. Thoughts?

That's actually a common spot for Die Chips. It's a nice looking coin, but the Die Chips on the claw don't really add any premium.

I've seen those before - like stated, just some small chips on the die.
