Republic 8 Reales 1849/8 PI-PS/AM AU53 NGC, San Luis Potosi mint, KM377.12, DP-Pi27 ("Very rare"). Choice for the designation with strong underlying luster and only faint actual wear on the higher points. A very rare date/assayer combination, seldom available in any grade with no recent public offerings noted by the cataloguer. Currently the single certified example by either NGC or PCGS, certainly among the finest extant - DP correctly rates high-grade examples as "almost non-existent" - and vastly desirable as such.From the FoxLair Collection
Estimate: 2000-3000 USD
