In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, several nations issued silver trade dollars to support commerce in East Asia. These large, high-purity coins were designed to be interchangeable with Spanish silver dollars, the dominant currency in international trade at the time. Many surviving examples bear chop marks, added by merchants to verify the purity of the silver.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAll purchases include a Certificate of Authenticity.
