This specimen was lot 77615 in Stack's Bowers Collectors Choice Online Auction (Costa Mesa, CA, February 2025), where it sold for $408. The catalog description[1] noted, "MEXICO. Gold 1/20 Onza, 1999-Mo. Mexican (Potosi) Mint. PCGS PROOF-69 Deep Cameo. Teocuitlatl Gold." This type is listed in the SCWC for 2000 only altho the plate coin therein is of a 1999, as this one is. The production is not recorded but was probably small as this is a very obscure type.

Catalog reference: KM-642.
