jpsned Pillar of the Community United States 2213 Posts	Posted 06/26/2025 12:54 pm You want to know what's wrong with it? It's fake, that's what's wrong with it. This appears to be an 1817 United States Trade dollar. Problem is, Trade dollars were made from 1873 to 1885. Edited by jpsned 06/27/2025 07:40 am Report this Post to the Staff
