TwoKopeiki's Coin Album
From the Royalist provisional mint of Guadalajara, Mexico. Variety without a period in front of the "HISPAN". Struck with rusty dies, planchet flaws.
Yonaka-M8-115, Calbeto-881 - pristine surfaces and original patina brought out by fantastic mint luster.
Yonaka-M8-119, Calbeto-887 - Single finest of the date at either NGC or PCGS as of August 2019. A superior representative of the type with lovely smokey golden-grey tone over the lustrous fields with areas in the peripheries that exhibit rich multicolored patina.
Yonaka-M8-109a, Calbeto-861 - Much more scarce combination of assayer initials. Type C portrait. A beautiful, lustrous example of this distinctive issue, with a lovely original skin and delicate pull-away toning above the lettering.
Yonaka-M8-76 - One of the most original examples of this date ever encountered. Pedigreed to Archer M. Huntington Collection.
Yonaka-M8-101c - Amazing example of this over-assayer variety with largely gunmetal grey toning on the obverse and a vividly colorful and lustrous reverse. Previously in an NGC MS63 holder.
Yonaka-M8-87 - Toned with lustrous blue and rose highlights among devices. Pedigreed to Archer M. Huntington collection and previously residing in an NGC61 holder.
Yonaka-M8-74 - Lustrous and original with beautiful cabinet toning. Currently the best example of this date certified as the only MS example at PCGS with only 3 others at NGC, but all in lower grades (60-62).
Yonaka-M8-85 - Best certified example of this date. Ex Morton & Eden's March 2013 sale of the Archer M. Huntington Collection. Part of lot #365. Ex HSA 1001.1.850
Yonaka-M8-105 - Amazing coin full of satiny sheen pedigreed to Blackhawk Collection
Yonaka-M8-109, Calbeto-859 - Type A portrait. Highly lustrous with a beautiful golden tone.
Yonaka-M8-93 - Gorgeous strike, color and luster on this fully uncirculated coin. The fact that it's in an AU58 holder is a travesty that will be addressed in the future. Ex: Mike Dunigan 2023 UsMexNA Show in Arizona.
Yonaka-M8-86 - A fantastic specimen superbly toned in shades of golden orange, indigo and rose on the obverse, with cool silvery blue and sea green on the reverse. Ex Morton & Eden’s March 2013 sale of the Archer M. Huntington Collection, one of three coins offered in lot #365. While not the highest graded at PCGS with one other coin in MS63, it does, in my opinion, possess superior eye-appeal to that specimen (cert# 17233896)
Yonaka-M8-94 - Great coin with pristine surfaces, original skin and luster. Previously in an NGC MS64 holder (6269013-010/64).
Yonaka - Unlisted, but confirmed with Brad. TH/HJ over-assayer and a different die pairing to the previously documented discovery piece. Rarity is unknown, but based on my personal observations - roughly in an R3 range.
Yonaka-M8-105a - Attractive coin with a delicate patina. Rare overdate 1805/4. As an MS62 there are only 3 coins graded higher at NGC as of Dec 2024.
