Owner's Comments

The 1873-Philadelphia is an extremely difficult Trade Dollars to find chop marked with a straight grade, My prior placeholder was a PCGS Details Grade that I was thankful to have even found. On the obverse are two carefully placed chops one of which is the character 大 ( dà - dài ) translated as big. Population Total 11, Higher 3, Lower 5. This coin passed through a prominent Trade Dollar collector and. I am very happy to have it leading off my modest collection having obtained same at a recent auction. Ex DDR
