Description

Struck in the standard silver alloy, J-1224 features a design that incorporates the most successful elements from the preceding entries into a cohesive whole. This synthesis represents the natural outcome of the extensive design competition, as the strongest obverse concepts and most effective reverse treatments were combined into increasingly refined candidates for the final Trade Dollar design selection.

Rarity Notes

R-7. Extremely rare, estimated 4-12 examples known.
