MEXICO. 20 Pesos, 1866-Mo. Mexico City Mint. Maximilian. PCGS AU-55.
Fr-62; KM-389. A vivid medium gold example with subtle rose undertones evident at isolated viewing angles. Both sides are well defined with considerable luster for the assigned grade. Struck during Maximilian's short-lived reign in Mexico, this one-year type perpetually remains in high demand. Many were mounted in jewelry or cleaned before modern numismatic preservation standards became widespread, meaning this original, Choice AU example is acutely desirable for Mexican specialists.
