Her right (facing) hand supports a globe inscribed with LIBERTY while her left holds high a pileus cap. A small eagle atop a shield dominates the reverse with the inscriptions UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and E PLURIBUS UNUM above and 420 GRAINS, 900 FINE and TRADE DOLLAR below. Struck in silver with a reeded edge. These dollar patterns were struck in silver, copper, aluminum, and (one piece) in white metal. This impressively designed Trade dollar is brilliant throughout with strong white-on-black contrast on each side.
