I'm bidding on this one but so far futilely. Unreal reverse toning.

Beautiful! I have to say it's one of the best Trade dollars I've ever seen.

Hi fenton,
Nice find!
I'm going to say this looks in the PF65+ Range.
The boost on premium is the overall tone.
Love the contrast of colors violets and indigo's mainly on the reverse. The eagle just jumps out at ya...WOW!
I would imagine a coin like this could set someone back
several thousands. If you can afford it...man go for it!
Don't see examples like this too often...Absolutely Stunning!

That's a gorgeous coin—hope you get it. I love colorful peripheral toning (as you can tell from my avatar!).

Amazing coin, PF-66 with a shot at 67.

I was chasing an MS62 that looked very similar though ended up losing it because my bank decided the $500 birthday check I deposited was suspicious and froze the funds for further review. Yay.

Hi Fenton
Beautiful looking example of a 65 Proof Trade dollar. Two photos that I post here are of the same coin. Would I be correct on that accretion?

Looks like a different coin. The second set photos show a very small nic on the reverse rim at 12 O'Clock. I don't see that on the OP photos.

Same coin. This coin was sold by Legend for $5875 on 6/27/9. Now being auctioned by David Lawrence.

They've really juiced the new photos. It would be a real disappointment seeing this show up after bidding based on the first photos.
