The regular issue ranged 1869-97 from City, Guanajuato, San Luis Potosi, Zacatecas, Chihuahua, Culiacan, Guadalajara, Alamos, Hermosillo, Durango and even Oaxaca. Alamos issued this type 1874-93. This date is fairly common for the mint tho priced substantially higher than a Mexico City issue. It is paired in the image with an 1886 ten centavos from Culiacan, notable for having a muled eagle die from the gold 2½ pesos.

Recorded mintage: 40,000.

Specification: 2.707 g, 0.903 fine silver, .078 troy oz ASW.

Catalog reference: KM 403.
