HONDURAS. Central American Republic. 2 Reales, 1831-T F. Tegucigalpa Mint. PCGS MS-61 Gold Shield. KM-9.3. A workhorse denomination from a specie-limited region, this coin is an anomaly of existence, displaying intense brilliance whereas most showcase heavy circulation. The strike is just a touch off-center and while commonplace for the series, a patch of incompleteness appears around the denomination. While minor relative to the normal imperfections encountered, these peccadillos certainly prevent this piece from receiving an even higher grade. From the Matthew Orsini Collection.
