from the Stack's Bowers 2017 Collector's Choice sale, lot 72672

This specimen was lot 72672 in Stack's Bowers Collectors Choice Online Auction (Santa Ana, CA, May 2017), where it did not sell. The catalog description^[1] noted, "MEXICO. Peso, 1882-CnD. NGC MS-62. RARE date, mintage of only 340 pieces. Good strike with strong reflective luster and excellent eye appeal." This specimen was struck at Culiacan in 1882. Mexico City is the commonest mint, followed by Guanajuato, Culiacan, Zacatecas (scarce), Hermosillo (rare), Alamos (rare) and Chihuahua (rare). Even the common dates have low mintages but the type was widely hoarded, making it reasonably available today.

Recorded mintage: 340.

Catalog reference: KM-410.2; Fr-160.
