This specimen is a scarce date of a series struck 1869-90 at the San Luis Potosí mint, which closed in 1893. This twenty-five centavos piece replaced the two reales struck since colonial times. It, in turn, was replaced by a smaller twenty centavos piece in 1898. The first specimen was lot 9126 in Ponterio sale 159 (Baltimore, March 2011), where it sold for $690. The catalog description[1] noted, "MEXICO. Potosi. 25 Centavos, 1880-PiH. Rare in high grade. Traces of adjustment marks. NGC MS-65."

Specification: 6.77 g, 0.903 fine silver, .196 troy oz ASW.

Recorded mintage: unknown.

Catalog reference: KM 406.8.
