1873 T$1 Trade XF45

A nice, crusty example of the first Trade Dollar

1873-CC T$1 Trade XF45

A very nice, original, sharply struck example, and CAC approves!

1873-S T$1 Trade XF45

Nice, original problem free example of this surprisingly tough date. Check the pops on the 73-S; there aren't a lot of them around. Formerly in an ANACS small white at AU50, now properly (IMO) graded at XF45.

1874 T$1 AU55

Great color and surfaces on this surprisingly tough date

1874-CC T$1 AU53

Not much to say about this one other than it fills the hole. Not ugly, but not up to my usual standards...

1874-S T$1 AU58

Very nice, original coin with attractive color

1875 T$1 Type-I/I MS60

Type 1 Obverse, Type 1 Reverse. This is a really tough coin as a business strike. And this is a "no doubt" business strike with all of the diagnostic pick-up points. Well struck and lustrous and conservatively graded at 60 (IMO it could easily go 62). Many thanks to OriginalDan for allowing me keep this one safe for the foreseeable future.

1875-CC T$1 AU55

Type 1 Reverse. Plenty of luster with golden highlights

1875-S T$1 AU55

Type 2 Reverse. Thanks go out to TennesseeDave for this lustrous coin.

1875-S/CC T$1 FS-501 OMM XF40

Type 1 Reverse, S/CC FS-501. Nice original surfaces and a very clear over-mintmark "C" - a perfect match to my FS-502

1876 T$1 AU58

Type 1.5 Obverse, Type 2 Reverse. No one is quite sure what this variety represents; is it a transitional between the Type 1 and 2 obverses? Or something else? In any case, the obverse LIBERTY ribbon points to the left as in a Type 1 coin, but Liberty's outstretched hand has 4 fingers as in a Type 2 coin. A great example of this tough variety and thanks to OriginalDan for passing it along to me.

1876-CC T$1 AU58

Type 1 Reverse. A very tough die marriage, the same reverse was also used for a few 1875 CCs. Note the missing serif on the "I" in America.

1876-S T$1 AU58

Type 1 Obverse, Type 1 Reverse

1877 T$1 FS-101, C-13 DDO MS61

DDO FS-101. Gorgeous, lustrous example of this scarce variety. Look for doubling in the rightmost obverse stars and LIBERTY. Special thanks to Keoj for passing this one along to me.

1877-CC T$1 AU50

Nice lavender toning and CAC approved.

1877-S T$1 FS-802 DDR AU55

DDR FS-802. A sharp strike with attractive toning and light wear. Looks 58 all day to me - might have been dinged for the toning (BWDIK - it was graded by the same grader who didn't recognize an obvious 1875 S/CC FS-501...) Purchased at a Heritage auction in an unattributed NGC AU58 holder.

1877-S T$1 FS-802 DDR AU55

DDR FS-802. A sharp strike with attractive toning and light wear. Looks 58 all day to me - might have been dinged for the toning (BWDIK - it was graded by the same grader who didn't recognize an obvious 1875 S/CC FS-501...) Purchased at a Heritage auction in an unattributed NGC AU58 holder.

1878-CC T$1 Trade AU50

Sharply struck (check out Liberty's head) and plenty of luster in the hidden areas, I think this one could easily go up a notch...

1878-S T$1 FS-801 DDR AU53

DDR FS-801. Clear doubling on the arrows, 420 Grains and UNITED
