I agree with the AU grade. Not the best strike in the central area of the obverse. Like most Peace dollars. Unless your pictures are hiding...
Very nice WQ. 67ish. Might be a FS-102 variety as well. Check the LIB.
Lurking in the wings. Paddy's '17 Type 1 SLQ is one on my favorite coins I've seen on CT. Couldn't have painted it anymore beautiful. The reverse...

Great write up. Glad you had a good show....weather....food, etc. I was there a few hours Friday. It was my first National show. Quite...

Marinebill has offered a great amount of information about how to spot fake trade dollars on this site. One of the key PUP he has mentioned many...
I'll say it's fake. Wrong reverse and the rims look pitted like it was cast. ????
The toning might be hiding a PL surface. PL64 Nice coin.
VAM 25 maybe??
