A class member would trade 23 pencils for 1 apple, then she would trade that 1 apple to her dog for a dollar, then trade the dollar for a huge race car gummy and the process would repeat over and over again.

What is the value of a 1791 trade dollar
The balance of trade, also known as net exports, is the difference between the dollar amount of merchandise exports and the dollar amount of merchandise imports.
The words Trade Dollar are on the reverse of the coins.
All Trade Dollars have the same reverse that reads TRADE DOLLAR at the bottom of the coin. The last authentic 1884 Trade Dollar that sold at auction went for $603,750.00. Yes more than a half a million dollars. Because only 10 coins are known and all are proof. If you have one it's a fake.
There was no 1926 British "Trade Dollar" minted.
On the front of a Trade Dollar it has Lady Liberty seated facing the left and on the back below the eagle TRADE DOLLAR. A Morgan Dollar has the head of Lady Liberty on the front.
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.
