MEXICO. 2 1/2 Pesos, 1871-GoS. PCGS AU-58.
Fr-153; KM-411.3. RARE two year issue with a mintage of just 600 pieces. It's been over six years since another sold at auction when Ponterio & Associates sold an EF for $950 as Lot 925 at the NYINC sale in January of 2009. The example offered today is considerably nicer, with somewhat thick tone that doesn't detract from the nearly pristine fields. The lightest trace of wear on the devices is all that stands between the assigned grade and mint state status. PCGS AU-58.
Estimate: $1500.00- $2500.00
