This specimen is a rare date of a series struck 1878-95 at the Durango 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. Varieties 1880/70 and 1880/79 are recorded for the year. All the Durango mint issues prior to 1887 are very scarce to rare. This specimen was lot 8930 in Ponterio sale 159 (Baltimore, March 2011), where it did not sell. The catalog description[1] noted, “MEXICO. Durango. 10 Centavos, 1880/70-DoB. EXTREMELY RARE date, only two or three examples known. VERY GOOD-FINE."
Specification: 2.71 g, .903 fine silver, .078 troy oz ASW.
