MEXICO. 8 Reales, 1871-A DL. Alamos Mint. NGC UNC Details-Obverse Scratched.
KM-377; DP-As09. Bright and lustrous, this nicely preserved example exhibits boldly struck devices with flashy fields. The surfaces are brilliant with just a hint of tone near the lower edge on the reverse. Close inspection reveals a couple thin scratches on the obverse from long ago, now slightly subdued. Despite its shortcomings an attractive example of the date.
According to the Dunigan Parker book this is the SCRACEST date for the period of 1868-74.
Estimate: $150 - $300
