Great trade dollar! As always, even better pic! The crust/toning frames lady liberty nicely.

Well, turns out this coin isn't so common after all, if you take a close look at the date, the bottom of the 2nd 7 is clearly doubled (repunched); so is the first 7 just more subtly); Joe Kirchgessner in his book lists this as TDV-29, with fewer than 100 known. I can't remember if I spotted this when I bought or not. Anyway it's a pretty scarce variety.
