Mexico City, Mexico, 1/2 real, Charles-Joanna, "Early Series," assayer G, mintmark oMo to left, oM/F/Po to right, extremely rare, NGC VF details / rev scratched. Nesmith-unl; Cal-unl; S-M2; KM-unl. In Auction 31 we featured a 1/2 real with oMo-oM/Fo and this one is even more important as oMo-oM/F/Po, barely visible with magnification. Both are unique, the present example a much better specimen despite the scratches on both sides, given its virtually full legends. There are no die-matches to assayer P and F coins, the differences having to do with stops used in legends, whether the panel leans right or left, and even what is within the panel (only PLV under assayers F and G while assayer P has both PLS and PLV). Until more examples become available, we make assumptions based on the few 1/2 reales coins minted under each of the assayers. Pedigreed to the Clyde Hubbard Collection of Mexican Charles-Joanna Coinage (stated on label). Accompanied by original tag or holder.
