Notoriously weakly struck. Most with a good strike exhibit a weak strike at 10:00 to 2:00 on the obverse. This example has a weak strike on the obverse at 3:00 to 5:00.Sorry for the bad pics, gotta cold that is reakin havoc with my sight and everything else.
Note the lack of details in the stars when viewing an 1877 Trade$.

so the bottom picture is the upgrade coin? If so I think the first one looks better but that is just my opinion I guess

Perhaps the flu is also effecting my ability to communicate.
So to clarify.

The FIRST coin posted is the upgrade. The second coin pictured is the one upgraded.

The first piece is gorgeous! Looks target toned but I see it's in a new NGC holder. That must have cost you a chunk.
