A genuine 1883 U.S. trade dollar is worth no less than $700 and quite possibly over $1,000 depending on condition. Note: An actual trade dollar has the Seated Liberty design on the obverse (heads) side and says "120 grains 900 fine" and "trade dollar" on the reverse (tails) side. If one side is only a woman's face, and the other side has an eagle and says "one dollar," then it's an 1883 Morgan dollar, worth about $25.

The first trade dollars were minted in 1873. If your coin has that date on the front and the words TRADE DOLLAR and 420 GRAINS 900 FINE on the back, it's a counterfeit (replica coin). It should have been plainly marked with the stamp "COPY." If it has a spread-winged eagle and the abbreviation ONE DOL. on the back, it's a Liberty Seated dollar, not a trade dollar. In that case please see the Related Question for more details.


What does a 1875 us trade dollar 420 grains 900 fine mean?

An 1875 Trade dollar 420 grains .900 Fine was a Silver Dollar minted in the US in the 19th century. These 'dollars' were not legal tender in the United States of America, instead intended for trade overseas, specifically in Asia. Hence the name Trade Dollars. 420 grains is roughly 27 grams of .900 Silver, which is under a troy ounce of 90% silver. These were intended to complete with other currencies being utilized in the orient at the time they were being minted. A lot of surviving specimens have what are called chop marks; marks on them which were done by a tool the recipient of these coins hit into them to verify they were real silver. Most trade dollars are worth more for their numismatic value than their silver value (trending a $100 or more in the lowest graded conditions).
