KM# 453 – Peso 1912 Mo Caballito. NGC MS63. - Fecha escasa, fulgurante lustre en ambas caras que da cierto aspecto al que denominamos "aceitado", leve tonificación en bordes, algunas marquitas y rayitas principalmente sobre las alas del águila, no obstante, de destacado aspecto
ENGLISH:
Certainly the quality of these specimens is remarkable, the dies and planchets were polished to obtain a better finish, additionally the high relief of the bust required greater strength at the moment of being struck, which ended up generating slight cracks, like the one at 12:00 on the obverse rim, some other minor cracks in the center of the reverse, dark patina with slight light blue tones against the light, slight scratches, touches on the edge, 29.89 grams. Today we know of no more than 10 examples, none of which have been made public in the last 20 years, making it one of the most sought medals and of special interest to advanced collectors of the Mexican Revolution. VERY RARE
Estimate: 26000 - 30000 MXN
