Towards the end of the Rudman Collection of Mexican Coins Part II, I realized that I would not be able to acquire enough of his coins to match his completion percentage. Several of the high quality pieces hammered at remarkable levels. And three of the overdate lots that I thought I could win, because they were details grades, realized over $1K each. Near the end of the auction, I was able to acquire this example at a reasonable price, perhaps because the 9 under the 0 is too subtle to easily distinguish. Despite some patches of unattractive toning on the pillar side, it's quite well struck, has minimal wear and much remaining luster -- it should be graded at AU level. There are no graded examples in the NGC or PCGS registry. Gilboy M-8-51b R3 (11-25 pieces known). ex rudman coleccion.
