Description
Conditionally Scarce 1878-S Trade Dollar, Gem Uncirculated
1878-S T$1 MS65 NGC. Although its mintage of over 4 million does not suggest a scarcity, nearly all 1878-S Trade dollars were sent to Asia where they saw extensive circulation. Today, high Mint State pieces are elusive, and it is a pleasant surprise to find an attractive Gem. Deep slate-gray and gold toning envelops the surfaces, which exhibit razor-sharp details save for a little softness on a couple of stars. Magnificent luster shines throughout, and a loupe locates only a couple of minuscule abrasions. Housed in an old NGC holder. Census: 24 in 65, 17 finer (6/08).(Registry values: N4719)Coin Index Numbers: (NGC ID# 253G, PCGS# 7048, GSID# 7387)
Metal: 90% Silver, 10% Copper
