Congress of Chilpanzingo (Type A), script-LVS and Morelos (Type A) countermarks (1811-14) on a cast Mexico City, Mexico, bust 8 reales 1810HJ (transitional "armored" bust of Ferdinand VII), rare, NGC XF 45, c/s AU standard, finest known in NGC census, ex-Jones. KM-C286. Nice host despite crude casting, with nearly full countermarks whose order of application appear to be script-LVS, then Morelos, then Chilpanzingo, with edge-split evidently due to the Morelos mark (which is particularly bold), very lightly toned. Pedigreed to the Dr. Peter Jones collection (stated on label) and to the Richard Long auction of September 2005 (lot #154). NGC #5907772-018.
