Modest grade on mine, but I think it has pretty nice eye appeal for the grade. Mine is definitely a “working class” collection.
Collector since 1976. On the CU forums here since 2001.

I've got a couple proofs:
PF-65 Cam
PF-66 DCAM
From my father-in-law. He got it while serving in the Merchant Marines during WW2 somewhere in Asia.

Mint State.
Proof.
Beautiful coin! The single, clear chop and type 2 reverse makes it one of the most appealing 75-Ss I’ve seen.
62? They don’t know how to grade choppies anymore
Not high grade but one of the coolest trade dollars I own.
This is a favorite of mine.
USAF (Ret.) 1985 - 2005. E-4B Aircraft Maintenance Crew Chief and Contracting Officer.
My current Registry sets:
✓ Everyman Mint State Carson City Morgan Dollars (1878 – 1893)
✓ Everyman Mint State Lincoln Cents (1909 – 1958)
✓ Morgan Dollar GSA Hoard (1878 – 1891)
Some nice Trade dollars shown here. I love @skier07's and @Tramp's toned examples.
A former "GotTheBug" coin from CRO and recent GFRC "gem" - "Just buy it now!" coin with golden loden green toning. I'm not a Trade dollar collector, but this coin glows for an XF45.

Great coin. I remember bidding on it and what I thought was a semi nuclear snipe was dust in the wind.
Nice coin and a tough find with the type 2 reverse!

I was prepared to bid higher than CAC price guide and here's why. I'm guessing this one entered circulation only a few years after 1883. Color is evident beneath the grey tone and I thought what a great way to own a proof Trade that I otherwise could not afford in a higher grade. Also both TPG's have graded circulated Trades but most have been cleaned or are damaged in some way so I think it is a good value and a truly rare coin. In my opinion older coins such as these are under rated with a CAC sticker and often sell for higher than listed values. Maybe folks over at Greysheet are missing the boat on these.
Did you know these were legal tender in China but not legal tender in Alaska or Hawaii?
Other than the one in my 7070, i have one.
