Attractive Near-Gem 1878-S Trade Dollar

Both sides are fully lustrous with satin surfaces and attractive peripheral iridescence. The grade is limited by a single small abrasion on Liberty's right (facing) arm, beneath the elbow, and a shallow horizontal pinscratch across the eagle's upper leg feathers.(Registry values: N2998)
