Republic 8 Reales 1886 Mo-MH MS65 NGC, Mexico City mint, KM377.10, DP-Mo71. Though weak along the legends, most so on the reverse, this quality proves to be an isolated affair, as the central devices are bold and fully impressed, resulting in remarkable detail on the cap, rays, and eagle's feathers. More broadly, the specimen shows almost glasslike surfaces with subtle pastel coloration, slightly iridescent in character, lending an enjoyable appearance that would be tough to forget.
