The reverse is completely wrong for that date -- should be " Trade dollar" with additional text for "420 grains" and "900 fine" and a motto above the eagle.

You have to be particularly careful with Trade dollars -- there are many counterfeits out there. Best to buy slabbed (by a reputable grader) or ask us before you buy (and have good pictures of both sides).

It has the obverse of one coin and the reverse of another. I'd be pretty leery of anything purchased along with it, or from the same seller.

 Never buy a potentially high value coin unless there's a somewhat decent return policy.

Quote: No return option? If you can find the person that sold it to you there is always a return policy because legal title to a counterfeit can't be conveyed. And it is also illegal to sell a counterfeit as a real coin.
