Ty2020b Pillar of the Community United States 4680 Posts	Posted 03/13/2022 2:50 pm Fooled me, though I did question a few points of weakness on the reverse. Don't know this series well enough. Thanks for sharing @Slider23. There's been an interesting, ongoing write up in The Numismatist (I think it was) on Trade dollars. Piqued my interest in the series that I've always put on the back burner. Report this Post to the Staff

I think you need to check again as at least two of us got it correct as a MS business strike and no one hit the actual MS61 ancient ANACS grade. Old ANACS white holders still hold many undergraded coins. This may be one of them. Bottom line is it is a nice pickup no matter what it grades. Report this Post to the Staff

paralyse Bedrock of the Community United States 12057 Posts	Posted 03/14/2022 9:24 pm I agree. I just don't know how to tell proof vs. business strike on these (die markers, etc.) Member ANA - EAC - TNA - SSDC - CCT #890 "Most of the things worth doing in the world had been declared impossible before they were done." -- Louis D.

westernsky Pillar of the Community United States 7624 Posts	Posted 03/15/2022 12:57 am I thought it was an MS strike because the rim and the beads just did not have that "look" that the proofs usually do. I think it would at least crossover as-is, but might get a 1 point bump. There is only one way to find out. Report this Post to the Staff
pristine2 Pillar of the Community United States 1048 Posts	Posted 03/19/2022 10:19 am I was fooled both by the very well-defined denticles and the nicely mirrored fields, which I've never seen on a business strike Trade dollar before. Pretty extraordinary piece, ultimately worth resubmitting to PCGS or NGC. Report this Post to the Staff
