There are authentic Trade Dollars to be found out there. The problem is that so, so many counterfeits exist. Some dealers have boxes of fakes...
Item reported.
I would call it slider AU and there looks to be some machine doubling.
Nice find! I hope to see some pictures of the coin posted.
I think ebay would be your best bet, but it really depends on the types of coins that are in the collection. If you can post some pictures of the...
I think it's a nice looking coin, but what is the whitish area between Monticello and the U in UNUM? Is it on the coin or on the 2 x 2?

The silver certificates were originally meant to be redeemed for silver dollars, as the notes were backed by silver. However, silver prices rose...
Any update on this piece Zane?
