What is up with the rim on this trade dollar at 12 and 6 o clock. Also if its a repair how would ANACS deal with a that do they do grade reviews from new owners or only original submitters.

Looks like rim bumps to me.

I do not see anything too distracting. If you bought the coin - you should have asked if you could return it if you don't like it. The 1876 is a much tougher to find date than the price indicates in XF-AU condition. I think the buyer did all right as this date is not easy to come by. I looked for years for a nice XF-AU at shows but did not even see many 1876 trade dollars at all. I bought one just about 2 months ago on Ebay. It may have been in a clip or belt buckle and those marks could have come from that. I would say it has not been repaired,BUT--- IN HAND Examination is required to be sure...JMHO-Bob

My thoughts too but I would note the harsh dip as well. Unless you know what you are doing I would recommend buying trade 1$s in PCGS plastic if you want any sort of resale value due to the lack of trust about the thinly traded market. That price is a steal though and the Hub pair is the most common for the date

I agree with Crypto about the coin being recently dipped,but for that price you did well.

I think collectors read, "razor sharp scratch..." on the front of the slab and thought it was on the coin (it isn't).

You got a good deal and I bet it doesn't look as dipped in person as ANACS will catch that if too harsh.

I agree with Crypto; I'd be more concerned about the surfaces than the rim bumps.
