Trade Dollars PF Like

7 posts in this topic

Just picked up my first Trade Dollar.  Very common 1877-S but in MS++++. Proof Like.  Coin is awesome. Ebay price was $515. Hopefully I got a real good deal. Sending in to NGC for their review.  If comes back MS 62 or better I got a deal.  

Maybe I'll start collecting a full set.  

 

Anyone out there collect a full set?

I hope you have a return privilege. Based on having viewed my fair share of Trade Dollars, I believe chances are quite good that the image has been enhanced and/or that the coin has been polished.

That image is way too small to say with high confidence.... but I think there's a STRONG chance that coin has been harshly polished to make it look reflective. It just doesn't have the feel of a true Prooflike coin. 

For comparison, here's my MS-63 PL:
