This specimen was lot 71420 in Stack's Bowers Collectors Choice sale (Costa Mesa, CA, October 2025), where it sold for $780. The catalog description[1] noted, "[[Mexico|MEXICO]]. 10 Centavos, 1884-Pi H. San Luis Pososi Mint. NGC MS-65. Only example in NGC Census. Remarkable condition for this date that always appears well circulated. Bright luster on obverse under toning. From the Kirk Menczer Collection of Republican Decimal Minors." This specimen is a rather scarce date of a series struck 1870-93 at the San Luis Potosí mint. This ten centavos piece replaced the silver one real struck since colonial times. Several transitional designs were issued 1863-70, including one by the Maximilian regime, before settling on this type. It, in turn, was replaced by a ten centavos piece with a redesigned reverse in 1898. Assayer H is recorded for 1874-85.

''Recorded mintage:'' unknown but a scarce date.

''Specification:'' 2.70 g, 0.903 fine silver, 18 mm diameter, reeded edge.

''Catalog reference:'' KM-403.9.
