MEXICO. Durango. War of Independence. 8 Reales, 1818-D CG/RM. Durango Mint. Ferdinand VII. PCGS VF-35. KM-111.2; Cal-1195; Ramirez-D8.8.3A. This crudely produced Royalist 8 Reales piece displays a clear over-assayer mark. There is a considerable area of roughness extending across both sides, but the rest of the coin is rather well-struck. Beautiful smoky gray toning helps obscure this drawback, resulting in a charming example of this <strong>RARE </strong>over-assayer variety.
