Beautiful gem grade. Very scarce "triple tongue" snake variety, catalogued as 1910-C2 in "Mexican Beauty/Belleza Mexicana" by Allan Schein. This coin is featured on the mentioned book on pages 19, 34, 37, 145 and 156.
This is an absolute wonder coin and likely my favourite Caballito. Blasting white with impeccable fields. A gorgeous example for the series.

Delightful Gem Caballito in an old green PCGS slab. This coin is as good as Caballitos come! Currently Caballitos are slabbed with the reverse (the actual horse side) on the front and the obverse (Mexican arms) on the reverse, but this coin was slabbed according to Mexican law that calls for the obverse to be the side of the arms. Amazing coin.
At the time of purchase (2017) PCGS has 87 coins certified: 1@50, 2@53, 7@55, 12@58, 1@60, 13@62, 17@63, 1@63+, 18@64, 1@64+, 11@65, and 3@66. NGC has 183 coins certified, 23@65, and 3@66.
The coin was sold by Heritage: "Republic "Caballito" Peso 1912 MS65 PCGS, Mexico City mint, KM453. A blast white peso with full cartwheel luster with a hint of champagne tone. Flashy eye-appeal".

Near Gem grade. At the time of acquisition (January 2015), only one graded higher by NGC. From the sale's catalogue: "Tied with eight others, with only one graded higher (at MS-65) at NGC. Lovely pale rose gold hued toning. Very attractive". Formerly in the collection of Mr. Allan Schein, author of the definitive text on the Caballito series "Mexican Beauty/Belleza Mexicana Un Peso Caballito".

Beautiful Gem grade. While difficult to say without microscope magnification, it appears that under loupe this is the variety described by Mr Allan Schein in “Mexican Beauty Belleza Mexinana” as A/D9.
