The trade dollar was a silver coin minted by the United States government specifically for use in trade with China and other East Asian countries. It was first minted in 1873 and continued until 1885. The 1875 trade dollar contains 0.7694 troy ounces of silver and has a diameter of 38.1 millimeters. The design features Lady Liberty holding a pole with a liberty cap on top and a bundle of wheat in the other hand, surrounded by 13 stars. The reverse features an eagle with wings spread, clutching arrows and an olive branch with the words "Trade Dollar" at the bottom. It was considered legal tender in the United States until 1890 but lost its legal status after that. Today, it is considered a collectible coin and is valued for its historical significance and silver content.
