Estados Unidos silver Specimen Pattern 5 Pesos 1950-Mo SP64 PCGS, Mexico City mint, KM-Pn197, Buttrey/Hubbard-127, PL-19 (RRRR). A wholly radiant and frosty Pattern 5 Pesos struck in silver and elevated by notable die polish and a bold striking, all lending to a superior eye-appeal which this mid-century Pattern typically lacks. For the sake of comparison, the Gerber specimen (Spink June 1996, Lot 494) certified a full grade point lower and showed significantly greater edge dings. With so few of this particular type crossing the auction block in recent decades, most recently in 2019, we anticipate collectors of 20th century Mexican rarities to take particular interest. Privately Purchased from Pat Johnson Rare Coin Company in November 2012
