Shown is an 1783MoFF half real, one of a type struck 1772-84. The bust of Charles III was used until 1789 but later issues were of slightly lower fineness and are catalogued as a separate sub-type. Assayer FF is recorded for the years 1778-84. Assayer FM is noted for 1783 but is very rare. The half real, as one-sixteenth of a dollar, would have traded in the United States for 6½¢. Harris[1] notes that the Mexico City half real is the only mint that can be called abundant for Charles III, the second mint, Potosi, is less than half as common.
Recorded mintage: unknown.
