MEXICO. War of Independence. Monclova and La Comandancia Militar. 8 Reales, 1812. Ferdinand VII. PCGS VF-20; Countermarks: EF Details.
KM-Unlisted; cf. Pradeau Pl. XIX-9 (for this countermark pairing). "M.V.A./1812." and "LCM" countermarks on a cast 1810-Mo HJ 8 Reales. This cast 8 Reales features a RARE combination of countermarks. While the host shows signs of time spent in circulation, it retains clear details all around and is free from any damage or distractions. Both stamps present excellent clarity with sharply defined characters. A handsome lightly toned example of this unusual War of Independence issue.
From the S.P. Rutherford Collection.
