Republic 8 Reales 1834 Ca-MR AU53 NGC, Chihuahua mint, KM377.2, DP-Ca04 ("Very rare"). Partially lustrous with attractive surface quality, only limited high-point wear accounting for the designation and a slightly soft strike in the centers as usually seen on this issue but clearly a superior example. An elusive date with a current combined population of three coins at NGC and PCGS, only one of which is certified higher. The remaining coin in that scant population is certified AU53 PCGS and hammered for $2,600 in our sale of the "Sonora Cap Collection" (Heritage Auctions 4/2015, lot 65018).From the FoxLair Collection
Estimate: 1500-2000 USD
