Watch List notes:

USA (Philadelphia Mint), Trade dollar, 1877, made into a gilt box dollar with mount and women's photograph inside. Made using a genuine Trade dollar in the late 1800s. It's been suggested some were sold as souvenirs during the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago. This piece is operated by pressing down on the top of the reverse; the hinge mechanism is in perfect working order. Inside is a black and white photo of a woman wearing a large pendant (possibly this very box dollar?). The gilt host coin grades about VF with tooling marks on the reverse, perhaps from some impatient person who didn't know how to open the box dollar.
($500-750)
