Republic 8 Reales 1880 Pi-MH MS62 NGC, San Luis Potosi mint, KM377.12, DP-Pi69. Although designated as the 1880/70 overdate variety, we have it on good authority that this is actually the normal date variety. Although not designated as such by NGC there is a strong implication that this piece is the "MH/R" overassayer variety as well; Though not absolute there does seem to be remnants of the "R" within the "H" with some considerable roundness at the upper portion of the "H". This example boasts a robust luster and pale golden patina, a bold strike, and a subtle reflectivity within the fields.
