I like the look and design of this coin more than the US Trade Dollar

    Nice. I know I could look it up, but what metal is it?

    These are silver. Anything denominated in "francs", pre-world-war-I, is going to be either silver or gold.

    Me too. It's not even close.

    This is not quite as dark in hand… especially for the reverse. This one graded MS64
