Watch List notes:

Mexico City, Mexico, 1 real, Charles-Joanna, "Early Series," assayer R (Gothic) between bottoms of pillars and motto as PLVSVL in rounded panel, rare, NGC VF 20. Nesmith-3c; Cal-60; S-M1; KM-7. 3.25 grams. Probably another example cited by Nesmith (mistakenly as a 3e coin) given the weight and diameter reported by both Nesmith and Hubbard and Hubbard's purchase date of April 1953. Hubbard also wrote on the coin's envelope that it was a 3e. They were both wrong by only one element, a double annulet used as a device between words that is present on this coin but absent on the Nesmith 3e coins. Despite their misattribution, it is still a rare example (as are all assayer R 1R) with PLVSVL in the panel and nicely toned with virtually full Gothic legends (except for the Latin M in the pillars legend). NGC #6448168-008. Pedigreed to the Clyde Hubbard Collection of Mexican Charles-Joanna Coinage (stated on label). Accompanied by original tag or holder from Clyde Hubbard.
