1898 British Trade dollar, designed by George William De Saulles. This one was minted in Bombay -- the mint mark is on the middle prong of the trident.

Very nice 1899 Morgan


Thanks GR!! That's the only coin I've bought sight unseen. I got it from a Jack Beymer add in CoinWorld back in the late '80s.

No, what I am seeing is a pullaway effect with the toning. This is usually a good indicator that the toning is natural. It is a function of the metal being linearized during the strike, with elements close to the rim, and thus restricting it's ability to patinate the way the other metal has around it.
