MEXICO. 1/8 Real, 1850. Mexico City Mint.
KM-334. Copper. Struck as an attempt by the federal government to end the unregulated minting of state and municipal copper issues.

A remarkably well manufactured piece with wide rims and a thick 14.33 gms planchet. A few light surface marks. Chocolate brown patina. EXTREMELY FINE-ALMOST UNCIRCULATED.
Estimate: $500.00- $700.00
