Mexico City, Mexico, 1 real, Charles-Joanna, "Early Series," assayer R (Gothic) between bottoms of pillars and motto as PLVS in rounded panel, rare, NGC XF 40. Nesmith-3 for type/3b; Cal-60; S-M1; KM-7. 3.27 grams. Most of the 1R from assayer R differ by the amount of Gothic lettering they retain in the legends, and this one has one more crude A than the previous lot. Given that they were some of the first coins made at the new mint, the small admixture of improvised letter punches can be forgiven, as can the small part of the edge that is missing on this piece. Overall the dark toning with gold highlights, the good strike, and virtually full legends and interiors make this an attractive coin. In addition it is tied with one other for second finest in NGC census behind a single AU 55. NGC #6448168-005. Pedigreed to the Clyde Hubbard Collection of Mexican Charles-Joanna Coinage (stated on label). Accompanied by original tag or holder from Clyde Hubbard.
