Many individuals say it is an obvious fake because of the eagle’s head and the feathers on the upper left wing (they have a point). However, the corresponding area on the obverse is also unnatural, making me think that a chopmark was tooled away and repaired.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]984922[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]984919[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]984921[/ATTACH] </p><p>[ATTACH=full]984920[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Of note is that there appears to be a DDR, and the mintmark style is distinctive. To my (limited) knowledge of trade dollars, this does not correspond to any reverse dies of 1875 CC trade dollars. I know we have a trade dollar guru on this forum, anyone know who it is?
