Collectible coins, also known as numismatic coins, refer to coins valued for their rarity, historical significance, or unique characteristics, rather than their face value. The United States Trade Dollar, issued primarily for trade with Asia, was introduced in 1873 and produced until 1885. The 1884 Trade Dollar minted in Philadelphia is part of a limited series, known for its silver composition and distinctive design featuring a seated Liberty. Collectors often seek this coin due to its historical context and relatively low mintage compared to other years in the series.
