El Salvador, 1 peso, 1896-CAM, Columbus, rare key date, NGC VG details / cleaned. KM-115.1. San Salvador's Central American Mint (CAM) began operation in 1892 but shut down in January 1896, after producing just a few hundred pieces of this date (the mintmark continued in this series on European- and U.S.-made coins through 1914). As a result, 1896 is a key date that always brings a premium, even for a low-grade example like this one, which does bear hairlines on reverse (although one wonders how relevant cleaning is at this grade level), making for a great hole-filler on a budget.
