Charles & Johanna "Early Series" Real ND (1536-42) R/·M·-·M· XF40 NGC, Mexico City mint, KM0007, Cal-133, Nesmith-3d. 26mm. Likely finest-known quality for this very rare issue, displaying rich tone over the surfaces and a strong strike that has rendered all detail nearly complete. Magnified inspection does reveal a series of thin marks that meander about, but they blend almost perfectly into the fabric of the coin, and are of minimal influence to the eye-appeal.
