I am a novice collector and came across this 1873 Trade Dollar from the Simpson Collection Short Set. The code in the short set album is 1873 T$1 - J1315. This coin has very different markings than a standard trade dollar. Is this coin legit. Weight of the coin is approx 25.5 grams.

Did you check the cert # on our hosts site? If it confirms it, are you trying to buy it? Is it for sale? Peace Roy

The images I attached I found online. It is the exact coin I have. I do not have the cert...just the coin. I was wondering if it was a legit coin or a fake/copy. It weighs about 25.5 grams. It is from the Simpson collection "Short Set". Just trying to determine if the coin is of value. Thank you for your help.
