Oaxaca (SUD/Morelos), Mexico, copper 2 reales, 1813, double-bow design, unlisted. KM-unl.; CT-unl. 11.9 grams. Apparently unique and still unlisted in references despite its appearance on the market in 1995, when the venerable Dick Long described it thus: "Very thick flan NICE FINE, double bow & arrow, must be VERY RARE, a style that I have never seen before." To that we can only add that it is darkly toned, with spots of red, and probably it is more like AVF by today's standards. Pedigreed to Richard Long sale #78 (July 1995), lot #787.
