Republic 8 Reales 1877 Ca-GR AU - Cleaned, Chopmark, Chihuahua mint, KM377.2, DP-Ca54. A scarcer type and described by Dunigan and Parker as "the second most difficult to obtain of this year." A russet toning is consistent throughout and some concentrated locations of discoloration most likely due to the cleaning methods used. Despite these efforts the strike is true with a fully legible "LIBERTAD" and nice details in the feathers. The chopmark is small and beneath the beak of the eagle.
