1853-o old Ngc xf40 and clearly undergraded but that is fine with me. Amazing the type of discounts you can get on great coins in NGC holders of you sort through all of the rest of the coins in NGC holders and the dealers who buy at discounts but charge with parity. At auction NGC coins often trade way back. That said when I ever sell I will have to cross. Until now I will enjoy as is. 53 is the most common coin in the set.

This is one of the main coins that the trade dollar was made to compete with and why it has 420 grains instead of the standard 412 of SLD . An F-15, original skinned Mexican 8R with a large assortment of multinational chops to include the Orient. This is what got it 98ed. Allows me to walk up to a group of coin collectors and take about my 1804 dollar.
1855-o NGC vf25 and wholesome as such. Arguably not as rare as the 50-o or even the 52-o in circulated grades but due to its rarity in UNC and the rarity as a type2 type piece it always commands a premium.
Type 1 Rev- the way the coin was meant to be presented before being modified for wear issues. Nice coin in an old rattler holder for some needed character

Type 2/2- DDR FS-801. A very rare coin that is also a condition rarity that is unknown to me in UNC. NGC calls this a AU53 which would make it one of the finest known but I am pretty sure a XF45 is in this coins future when it goes to PCGS in the summer.

1849-o NGC AU50, one year type open wreath LDS. Antique crudely made coin that has die cracks and a weak strike on the rev. Miniature version of the Liberty double eagle that came out the same year that attempted to use up America's new found gold riches and ease circulating coinage shortages.
_original.jpg)
Early date with a lot of meat left and pleasing tone that covers light hairlines on the Obv.
Type 1/1- Choice original Seated Trade Dollar and 1st year of issue on a classic series that America introduced as a way to export more silver so not to crash and flood its markets as silver stated pouring out of the west with the establishing of major mines such as the Comstock.

Type 1/1- Wide CC 1.2mm, Rare coin that is part of a 3 coin subset that had an unique Rev Die used in 1873,74 and 76. All 3 dates are rare with the 74 being the hardest to locate followed by the 73 and then the still rare 76. This coin is a perfect mid range cir that is CAC approved.

Type 1/1- A choicely original AU that is a perfect coin for my set and an underrated early P Trade 1$ that compares to the 75p Key-date in terms of POPs but not price. I got the coin raw off Ebay for less than 60% of retail but those days seem to be coming to an end.
Type 1/1- Super pleasing UNC with strong luster under dusty molted tone as one would expect for the age. The 74-s is a slightly better overall and a condition scarcity in UNC ranging to an extreme rarity in Gem. Despite this it is often priced at type and offers an opportunity for collectors.
Type 1/2- Wear/strike of 40, luster of 50 with the remains of a PL Rev. 3rd or 4th Rarest of the Carson City Trade dollars as a Type 1/2 hub pairing which is know to come weakly struck esp on the rev, Perfect.
Type 1/1- Nice original example with ample luster the most common Type one Trade dollars. Perfect example of how the pops for Trade dollars are slightly misleading. It show 31 in AU50 but out of those I would guess that 22 are Type 1/1, 7 or 8 are type 1/2 large S and 1 or 2 are the Type 1/2 Micro s.
Type 1/2- Scarcer type 2 Rev with the more common large S. Dies went into production late and the year and were largely sent for export. Nice counterpoint to my other AU58 75s examples.

Type 1/1 - Rare Non-broken Letter Rev (Perfect) with a period after the word FINE. This is a LDS with a large die crack under the word TRADE on the REV which most likely caused die failure early. This accounts for less than 1% of the 76p type 1/1s out there and those only account for less than 50% of the total 76p's found.
Type 1/1- Perfect Circulated example of this scarce-ish hub pair that is over shadowed by the prohibitively rare type 2/2. The Type 1/2 is the most common type that is encountered for this date and the 76p and 76s are the only coins known to come in all 3 hub types. Nice to see a coin that circulated domestically as the public had a mistrust for the coin and the ones that were used most were recalled and melted if the were not chopped. Broken Letters Rev (as most are) Probably part of a damaged hub that made the dies that Philly used that year.
Type 1/2 - Most common of the 76p's. Choice original coin with cool concentric die cracks on the Lower Rev. Nicely PL with the rounded rims and the Rev die cracks giving away its business strike origins. Nice toning.
Type 1/1- Wide CC Mint Mark (1.2 mm spaced) Rarest of the 76cc's as such for hub pairing. Rarer than the Doubled Die Rev and the 75cc type2 (of note it uses the same Rev die as my 1874 CC XF45 ). Original skin & Details of 45-50 but minimal luster with some micro-porosity on the obv, Correct NET Grade of 40.

Original skin & Details of 45-50 but minimal luster with some micro-porosity on the obv, Correct NET Grade of 40.
Type 1/2- Most common of the 3 main 76cc's you will come across at an almost 75% rate, although the 76cc is a scarce date to start with it becomes conditionally rare in the choice AU and greater range. This coin is a total package of originality /luster pop / and preservation with a correct grade of 53. Most coins of this issue even in TPG's slabs are not working with their original skin. Perfect
Type 1/2 - large S rev, scarce when paired with the type 2 rev. Nice classic Cir example that is a LDS with Cir Die crack on the Rev and of one of two know large S dies known for the type 2 rev - one paired with a type 1 obv and a very rare coin that is paired with a type 2 obv.
Type 1/1- CAC Most common of the 76s Hub combos and a choicely original circulated coin. Glowing luster with original tone. One of the nicer low AU Trade dollars I have seen.
Type 1/2 - Large S. One of the harder to find combos out for 76s. Average AU with some life left brown tone.
Type 2/2- As is the norm for 77p's it has Flat stars but a surprisingly full head and the rest of the coin is hammered. This coin is a slider and is one of my nicest preserved Trade Dollars and is just dripping with a semi PL luster with golden Tone, I would balk at AU58 too as the coin is every bit as MS61 as my 78s. Perfect and very high quality.
Type 2/2 - Scarce Broken Arrows variety noted by the die damage on the Rev. It should be noted that the 78s DDR is either this Rev die that was rehubbed to correct the damage or for a die that came from a hub that had this error and then rehubbed again to correct the arrows. Flashy coin that is net graded for the splotchy tone.
Type 2/2- DMPL that while dipped and a little chatty (time spent in a bag most likely) is a very interesting and attractive coin. This is the most common date to find PL
Type 2/2-Completely under graded keydate. Detail of 50-53 w/ luster of 45-50. Traces of old proof like flash. One of the nicest Cir 78's I have seen outside of a few high end AU's. Perfect The allure of the 1878cc Trade dollar that helps it cross into mainstream collectors--- Made rare by decree: Secretary of the Treasury John Sherman, who disliked trade dollars intensely (even though the director of the Mint, Dr. Henry Linderman, believed they were an excellent, useful coin), mandated on February 22, 1878, that no trade dollars would be paid our for deposits of bullion made prior to the order for discontinuance when received at Carson City. When this order reached Carson City, this branch mint had already struck 97,000 pieces; 56,000 in January and 41,000 in February—the smallest business strike quantity of the denomination. Thus, a rarity was created. Melting: On July 19, 1878, 44,148 undistributed trade dollars went to the melting pot. Most must have been dated 1878-CC, many from the 41,000 delivered in February. This leaves a net mintage for distribution of only 52,852 coins. Although it is possible that some were dated 1877cc
Type 2/2- Scare proof only issue as Trade dollar coinage stopped being made for exsport: On February 22, 1878, Secretary of the Treasury John Sherman, a foe of the trade dollar denomination, mandated that coinage cease. By this time Philadelphia had produced no business strikes, and made none later, only Proofs. Carson City had made some, production was halted there, and many extant coins were melted. San Francisco ended its coinage, but not immediately, as it wanted to take care of pending business and deposits. Pleasing lightly handled proof in AU(P) for my AU set that fills the natural hole created by the lack of Business strikes for the year.
Cameo PL VAM 70 DDO in an old Rattler. Cool cheap coin that replaced the Trade dollar.

2-B Low date w/close fraction + Medallic alignment. Classic head first gold coin struck at NO mint. Not rare but special
1854-o no dollars were made but they produced a limited production of 3$ gold pieces for this year only.

OGH + thick honey & olive skin 24,000 mintage for this curious 1 year issue that slots into the natural date gap on the 1$ Gold New Orleans run. To further tie in it shares it’s design with the type 2 1$ coins such as the next 1855-o

Type 1/1 - Wide CC 1.2mm. Currently extremely rare with two known and one of the 4 different years married to the distinct 1.2mm CC type one die. Known paired with a 73 (very rare), 74 (very rare), 75 (R8) and 76 which is surpringly only scarce in context. It composes a fascinating subset collection of the Trade series that have been sought out since at least the 1950s. The 1875cc wide has long been speculated about years only to pop up on EBay in 2016. Both are problem coins, one with quality originality but rim bumps where the other is over dipped but solid surfaces both with xf details.

Transitional type 1-2/2. Almost undoubtitly a cirulation strike of this very rare issue. Coin has a very weak strike and a different reed count as other 4finger coins that I have examined. Much more research needs to be done on this fascinating coin.

Type 1/1- CAC and rarest of the 76cc die pairs and hub types. This was a left over 75cc rev die that saw limited use. Passed down from the Blackhawk collection and a coin I looked for for a very long time.

Type 1/2- Micro S, Most common of the hub type mint mark types but proved surprisingly hard to find in attractive AU. Saw a few dipped out sliders in UNC holders but held out of this one. Former Old ANACS 55

Type 2/2- Large S mint mark. Very Rare and unknown to specialists until relatively recently (90s?). Wholesome VF that only a Trade Nut can love.

Type 2/2 - Large S scarce and one of the few graded UNCs known.

Type 2/2- Micro s. Part of two different secondary sets (micro S 75 1/2, 76 1/2, 76 2/2 and the 77 2/2) and my Chop Mark San Francisco set. While I have a Chop date set that also includes at least one from every mint, I decided to do a run of all the S mints. They primarily produced Trades for the Orient and is a major part of the series identity. I actually bought this from China and it is my first plus coin.

2nd widest spread doubled die of the series although not up to the standard of the 34d.
One of the coolest 2 coin sets of coins in 20th Cen Americana. A widely spaced DDO with two distinct Rev.
1852-o NGC AU58 and every bit of that. Mint error which is rare on gold of partial collar near broadstrike territory. Full rail road rim and enlarged circumference.

Rare coin with just a few dozen known in Mint State. Don't think of it as a VAM. think of it as recent Redbook variety that is by far the most significant error in the popular Peace series. Bound to be a super star one day IMO
Type 2/2 - DDO, FS-101. I have it at the XF40 level but a nice original coin with the rare Doubled die.
Type 2/2-DDR Late die state with a large die chip in the right wing and even though it has nice PL surfaces with some field depth in spots, the die was probably polished after a striking event as I know of MDS that are full chartwheel. No individual mark accounts for the low grade although its looks to have had a bath X number of years ago which might have knocked it down from a 62 due to the eye factor(or up from 58). 3rd or 4th biggest spread in the trade series and a scarce coin esp in mint state. Cool Rev mounted slab
Type 2/2-DDR FS-802 or 2nd Die, Great toner on a scarce coin. Crossed from old ANACS AU55
Type 2/2- RPD FS-301. Rare RPD that is one of the strongest in the series. Crossed from a ICG58 holder. Little higher than my grade but 2 out of 3 can't be wrong ;)

Type 1/1- 1875 S/CC FS-501 LDS with extensive cracking on the Rev with a clear bold C. The Top Variety in the series that crosses over into mainstream collecting due to its bold clear C remnants of a CC on the die that was originally intended for Carson City. One of 2 known repurposed dies for the year and the more obvious of the 2. This one is a very high end coin that is close to a true UNC IMO and one of the few I have seen with much eye appeal and a Bold C. Counter to logic the EDS (without cracks)can come with very faint under details and range from invisible to thin and low relief. Cracked out of an NGC 61 holder as the picture shows.

Type 2/2 - Ex Concord Collection - The unquestioned centerpiece of my collection being one of the 2 main (if not the) Keys to a Hub type Trade Dollar. Understated true rarity of around just a few dozen business strike coins known and not more than 4-5 UNC's. This coin is clearly not a proof with what I would call a C- Circulation quality strike and does not display the common signs of being struck multiple times. Also many of the crevices that would show mirrors if struck on a polished planchet are not PL such as the spaces in between the ropes and the hay bails, low points of feathers and the eagles neck line. The coin does have PL fields and amazing natural toning with blues and fire reds through out most likely from spending the 90's in an old no-line NGC fatty. This coin is one of the finest know and "all there", I will provide it a good home till the next generation of collectors come along.
