A second assayer, H, is noted for the year but is very rare. The second specimen was lot 9166 in Ponterio sale 159 (Baltimore, March 2011), where it sold for $517.50. The catalog description[1] noted, "MEXICO. Durango. 50 Centavos, 1875-DoM. Rare condition for this mint. Weakly struck. NGC MS-61.”

Specification: 13.54 g, 0.903 fine silver, .393 troy oz ASW.
