Number of Horcrux

[Donna]

No: HPFGUIDX 137997

Please forgive me if this has already been addressed - I'm WAY behind in my
reading.

Are we dealing with 7 or 8 pieces of LV's soul?  Did he make 7 horcrux with
pieces of his soul and keep a bit in his body?  If so, then there are 8
pieces of his soul.  Or, is there 6 horcrux and 1 piece still in LV's body? 
If so, then that would make the magic number 7.
