Jasta2 · 12-22-2009, 07:33 PM

I am always looking at American Eagles at the online auctions. This one caught my attention. It is a .30 1906 American Eagle that the seller states has a Eagle/Swaztika on it's right side and two on each side of it's brl. I could not see any when I blew up the photos 400%. I requested close-up pictures of the 'Eagle/swaztikas' and waiting for them. Maybe this AE has been around for awhile and there is a story to it, but it would be VERY strange, to me at least, how a AE could end up with these proofs. Hopefully someone has not tried to 'enhance' this AE with their own stamps. What you think?
