Description:
This 1875-S Trade Dollar, graded AU58 by ANACS, is a remarkable piece of U.S. numismatic history. Designed by William Barber, the obverse features Lady Liberty seated holding an olive branch, symbolizing peace, and a scroll inscribed with "LIBERTY," while resting on a bale of goods, representing commerce. The reverse depicts a heraldic eagle clutching arrows and an olive branch, with "420 GRAINS. 900 FINE" prominently inscribed to indicate its silver content.
Minted in San Francisco, the Trade Dollar was originally created for trade in Asia, with its higher silver content aimed at competing with other international silver coins. Its AU58 grade indicates slight wear on the high points, retaining most of its original luster and sharp details.
