Watch List notes:

Mexico City, Mexico, 1/2 real, Charles-Joanna, "Late Series," assayer A to right, o to the left, mintmark oMo below monogram, motto PL-V-S, legend as HISPANIARVM.ET.INDIAR on both sides (very rare error), flowers instead of crosses at top on both sides, NGC VF 30. Nesmith-63; Cal-49; S-M6; KM-6.5. 1.63 grams. Very rare but known to Nesmith, this variety contains a mint error of the same legends of HISPANIARVMoEToINDIARVM on both sides of the coin, of which we have seen six including another one in this (lot 1457), the present example with full legends and interiors, a scratch across the right pillar. It seems that Nesmith did not note the flowers instead of crosses at the top on both sides, but we have seen this on all Assayer A coins of this denomination. Pedigreed to the Clyde Hubbard Collection of Mexican Charles-Joanna Coinage (stated on label). Accompanied by original tag or holder.

Estimate: $500 - $750
