Mexico 1874-As L 10 centavos
From CoinFactsWiki
This specimen is a scarce date of a series struck 1874-93 at the Alamos mint. This ten centavos piece replaced the silver one real struck since colonial times. Several transitional designs were issued 1863-70, including one by the Maximilian regime, before settling on this type. It, in turn, was replaced by a ten centavos piece with a redesigned reverse in 1898. This specimen was lot 8914 in Ponterio sale 159 (Baltimore, March 2011), where it sold for $218.50. The catalog description[1] noted, "MEXICO. Alamos. 10 Centavos, 1874-AsDL. NGC MS-62."
