Silver Trade Dollar
This is a Great Britain China Trade Dollar, dated 1900. These silver dollars were minted specifically for trade with China during a period when silver was the standard currency. The obverse features a depiction of Britannia, a female personification of Britain, holding a trident and shield. The coin’s design reflects the historical trade relationship between Great Britain and China, and its use as a medium of exchange in the Far East.
