Yes, pirates sometimes received compensation for injuries sustained during their adventures, including losing an arm or leg. This payment often came from a ship's articles, which outlined the distribution of shares among the crew, including provisions for injured members. Additionally, some pirate crews had a system of "injury compensation," where those who lost limbs could receive a one-time payment or an adjusted share of the loot. However, the specifics varied by crew and captain.
