chafemasterj Pillar of the Community United States 6514 Posts	Posted 02/16/2019 05:20 am Just freed this Trade dollar from it's PCGS holder to put in my 7070. My first time freeing a coin from a slab. I must confess, it felt good. Curious what you would grade this at. I feel like PCGS was reserved in it's opinion. Thank you kindly.

nickelsearcher Moderator United States 15660 Posts	Posted 02/16/2019 05:56 am I have no expertise in this series - so take the following as a guess. F15 original surfaces, other than the chop mark. I can't tell by the photos what is going on at the lower reverse legend TRADE Take a look at my other hobby ... http://www.jk-dk.art Report this Post to the Staff

aristarchus123 Pillar of the Community United States 1696 Posts	Posted 02/16/2019 08:02 am Nice looking coin! Does PCGS give a numerical grade to Trade dollars when there are chop marks? Report this Post to the Staff

chafemasterj Pillar of the Community United States 6514 Posts	Posted 02/16/2019 12:20 pm Thanks everyone. It was graded by PCGS as VF-25. Quote: ... a good spot for the chop mark in my opinion. I agree. Thought it didn't take much away from the eye appeal of the coin. I've seen some unfortunate chop mark placements.
