    Looks genuine but are those lines die polish or hairlines?
    Many happy BST transactions
  • They look very much like die polish to me in hand but they came out looking a little like hairlines in the photos.

    Looks like it was freshly minted and, hence, unnatural to me. I see nothing that would indicte that it is a counterfeit though.

  • Looks cleaned, you should weigh the coin and if it weighs right on, then I would say good!

  • My scale shows 27.3 so that's correct I believe.
  • Looks real and whizzed.

    The luster looks cartwheel to me, which would definitely not be whizzed.

    Where's TDN ?
  • guys it was cleaned, look at the abrasions on her outstretched arm, there are hairlines on there which should not be there if it was a die polish.

    Authentic? Yes, it's a real Trade Dollar. Looks like it was polished.....Miss Liberty's face should not be that shiney!

    Looks genuine to me, although cleaned. Still a nice looking coin, imo.
  • Definitely abrasively cleaned, and almost certainly polished as well.
