It became necessary to produce a special dollar for trading in the British Colony when the price of Silver rose rapidly in value between 1875 and 1895. The Silver price disturbed trading and resulted in a very serious shortage of minted dollars. The 2018 US Trade Dollar Restrike captures the essence of this history in pure 999 silver.
