Minted in 1875, the Silver Trade Dollar was issued as a result of trade agreements with various Asian countries, particularly China, where it was intended to facilitate trade. These coins played a crucial role in international commerce during the late 19th century.

The coin is a proof strike, indicating that it was specially produced with polished dies and multiple strikes to achieve a superior finish. Proof coins were typically struck for presentation, diplomatic gifts, or inclusion in proof sets, making them highly sought after by collectors.

The obverse of the coin features a seated figure of Liberty with a Phrygian cap, symbolizing freedom, while the reverse displays a wreath surrounding the denomination and the inscription "Trade Dollar." The cameo contrast between the mirrored fields and frosted devices adds to the visual appeal of the coin.
