I have a Trade dollar that I recently upgraded from in Buy It Now (ex-PCGS) which was replaced by this one that I snagged over the weekend and wanted to see what the CCF has to say in comparison to PCGS.

Thank you for your interest!

It looks to have a little more rub than my 1877-S does and mine is graded AU-55 by PCGS so I am guessing a 45 or 50 as well. Here are pictures of mine

with XF45.

Looks like AU50, but with the nicks on the arm, I believe PCGS called this one XF, however, AU50 wouldn't be too surprising.

I'd go a little higher, AU-53. Details look good but it lacks the luster of 55 and higher.

It's a blistering strike but 45 max. PCGS? I wouldn't be shocked if they called it 40.

Another "buy the coin..." story. I like the sharp strike, but the "dings" on the left arm may have indeed knocked her down a few points, but I like her!

Well, if this means you bought it for XF40 money, then you got a great deal .
