1877 peace dollar

I took this to my local company n dealer and he said as far as he knows it is a real peace dollar. It weighs 27.1 g and doesn't stick to a magnet. He suggested getting it graded. It's in great shape. Any ideas on what grade it would be?

Then your dealer is dumber than a bag of wet nickels, because that's not a Peace dollar. It's a Trade dollar. I expect that mistake from novices and it's no reflection on them, but if a dealer really said it, you found one of the dumbest ones ever.

The photos make it impossible to tell whether it's cleaned, but I suspect it's been whizzed. As for authenticity, I can't tell for sure.

Circulated, scrubbed, dirtied to hide the scrubbing. Suggest the OP not go near the dimwit who told him it was a "Peace dollar."
