1877 Silver Trade Dollar $1 PCGS VG 10

1877 Silver Trade Dollar $1 PCGS VG 10

Bullion Exchanges proudly offers the 1877 Silver Trade Dollar $1, graded VG 10 by PCGS. The Trade Dollar series was first issued in 1873 and designed specifically for trade with Asia, particularly China. Struck in .900 silver, this coin was larger and heavier than the standard silver to compete with popular foreign coins like the Mexican Peso and the Spanish 8 Reales, both widely circulated in Asia to facilitate international commerce. The 1877 issue is part of this historic series and offers both numismatic and historical appeal to collectors.

The coin's design symbolized commerce, with Lady Liberty seated on a bale of goods holding an olive branch on the obverse, while the reverse featured a bald eagle, reflecting the strength and resilience of the United States. Although the Trade Dollar was discontinued for circulation in 1878, its historical significance and limited mintage make it a sought-after collectible today.
