Well Struck 1878-S Gem Trade Dollar

1878-S T$1 MS65 NGC. The 1878-S Trade dollar with a mintage exceeding 4 million pieces is one of the more common issues in the series, though the certified population drops significantly between near-Gem and Gem. Light gray and greenish-yellow patina bathes each side of this MS65 example. Semiprooflike fields accentuate well struck devices when the coin is tilted slightly under a light source. A few faint handling marks are undisturbing. Census: 24 in 65, 17 finer (11/09).(Registry values: N4719)

Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 253G, PCGS# 7048, Greysheet# 7387)

Weight: 27.22 grams

Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper
