MEXICO. 8 Reales, 1834-Ca AM. Chihuahua Mint. NGC AU-55.
KM-377.2; DP-Ca05. A premium example of this issue, noted as "Rare" by Resplandores, with a strike that is approaching complete despite the issue often coming crudely made. Visually compelling multicolored toning on each side adds to this coin's impressive appearance, with deeper inspection revealing a lack of surface marks as well. All considered, a combination of quality and eye appeal that is hard to beat for the issue and from a technical standpoint, only surpassed by a single example in the NGC and PCGS census data.
Estimate: $1200.00- $1500.00
