A sharply struck and visually appealing example of the first-year Trade Dollar. Both sides display strong definition, with Liberty’s portrait crisply rendered and the stars and drapery folds well articulated. The reverse eagle is equally bold, showing excellent feather detail and a solid strike through the wings and legs. The surfaces exhibit a smooth, original silver-gray patina with vibrant mint luster that accentuates the design, free of significant distractions for the grade.
