This specimen is a common date of a series struck 1869-93 at the San Luis Potosi 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. An overdate, 1892/0, and an overassayer, R/G, are recorded for the year. The first specimen was lot 8988 in Ponterio sale 159 (Baltimore, March 2011), where it sold for $184. The catalog description[1] noted, "MEXICO. Potosi. 10 Centavos, 1892/0-PiR. NGC MS-66." The second specimen was lot 8989 in Ponterio sale 159 (Baltimore, March 2011), where it sold for $115. The catalog description[1] noted, "MEXICO. Potosi. 10 Centavos, 1892-PiR. NGC MS-64."
