By "not uncommon," I actually did mean "common." (A double negative will do that.)
Sitting Bull's is a reasonably common signature. If you want one, you can have one. And exemplars are not hard to find. I've never owned one because I don't collect Western autographs. But I have seen many. And by "many," I mean a number much larger than three.
As I said above, I am not defending Coach's. Their Sitting Bull is garbage, as are virtually all their autographs. And if Morales or Stat has authenticated a piece, I wouldn't touch it.
But I have been collecting autographs seriously for more than forty years, have quite a decent collection (even if I do say so myself), and the fact is that Sitting Bull's signature is not rare. Many, many of those cards survived.
