1880 trade dollar?

Trade dollars were only struck as proof coins in that year. If your coin has a picture of Miss Liberty in a sitting position and the words TRADE DOLLAR on the back, you should have it checked for authenticity; there are many counterfeits. If it only has a picture of Miss Liberty's head you have a Morgan dollar, not a Trade dollar. See the Related Link in that case.


Why does a 1847 seated liberty have the back of a 1874 is this a reissue?

The 1847 Liberty Seated Dollar reverse is not the same as a Trade Dollar dated 1874. The eagles face different directions, Liberty Seated is left and the Trade Dollar is right. Also on the obverse of the Liberty Seated coin the body is facing right with head left and with the Trade Dollar the body and head are both facing left. The only way a 1847 dollar would have the reverse of a 1874 Trade Dollar is if it's counterfeit. I suggest showing it to a collector or dealer for their opinion.


Was there a Trade dollar minted in 1872?

Trade Dollars were minted from 1873 to 1885. The dollar that was minted in 1872 was the Seated Liberty Dollar, if it has a (CC) mintmark and the coin is in good condition, the coin could be worth thousands. *If it says 1872, and Trade Dollar, it is a copy (fake) of a pattern coin from 1873, which used the Seated Liberty obverse and one of two "trade dollar" reverse sides. These copies are readily and cheaply available, and some do not bear the legally-required 'COPY' imprint. Most contain no silver at all.
