Great find, Geo! 
This is not a mystery game. Those six coin dies really went missing from a UPS truck delivery. (I may have embellished on the idea of "long and lonesome stretch of deserted highway," but the rest is 100% true.) The shipping box really did burst open during transit, and six of the retired coin dies really did go missing.
According to that eBay listing, the seller is located in Missouri. (Do they have long and lonesome stretches of deserted highway in Missouri?) Maybe the rest of the coin dies are in the same area? Or maybe the seller has more than the one die? I'd love to know the story on how he acquired it! (However, I won't say a word to him, in case one of you wish to buy it from him.)
In the meantime, the special MISSING COAs are made and ready to ship to anyone who gets hold of one of these legendary missing dies, and I'm absolutely thrilled that one has been found! (Thanks again, Geo!)
Good luck, everyone!
Regards,
Chris@TBPCO

as a note, I did see this die also the other day - And I did reach out asking where they got them - they, of course, refused to say anything other than that they got them thru legal means and that if the "previous owner" wants to contact them to discuss they will do so. But they would not discuss it with me. I was not rude and neither were they. They are just stating they got the die legally "from a vendor" and would not share that vendor information. Which is, in a way, understandable to not willingly give up vendor information just to some random dude on eBay. I would suggest you reach out to them though.
I also asked the eBay seller if they had any others, particularly the 2 missing gold eagle dies & they said this is the only one they have.
