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.

How much is a 1872 Trade Dollar with the mint mark S and in F-12 condintion worth?

The first Trade Dollars were minted in 1873. If your coin says Trade Dollar on the back and is dated 1872 it is a counterfeit. If it does not say Trade Dollar, then it could be a genuine Liberty Seated dollar. You should have it inspected by a dealer or certification agency because its value could range from $300 to $1000 depending on condition.


What does a 1872 us trade dollar 420 grains 900 look like?

It wouldn't look like anything because no genuine Trade Dollars were minted in 1872. If you have a coin with that date it's a counterfeit. There were some silver pattern coins dated 1872 that were struck in 1873, but these are already accounted for. They are versions of the Liberty Seated Dollar. You can see pictures of genuine Trade Dollars at www.coinfacts.com

Trade dollars were only minted from 1873 to 1885, and no dollar coins of any kind were minted for circulation from 1804 to 1835. Trade dollars are among the most widely counterfeited dollar-sized coins so if your coin purports to be a trade dollar dated 1817 it's a fake.

What is the estimated value of a silver 1872 dollar coin of the us It's liberty trade?

The first year Trade Dollars were issued was 1873. Many wrong-date counterfeits exist. If it does have "TRADE DOLLAR" on the reverse. It is definitely a fake. If not, it's a 1872 Seated Liberty dollar that needs to be seen for an accurate value. Take it to a coin dealer.
