What is this worn sucker?

    The detail on this is just about gone. It appears to be a late 19th century Mexican coin ("Republica" is clearish with the Mexican eagle facing right common from that period). It's 25mm in diameter.

    Any help narrowing that ID down (& establishing a value) would be appreciated. I also played with the brightness/contrast trying to pull some detail out of the text within the wreath:

    It's a Mexican 1 centavo but there's no way of telling the date (1869-1898), so the value is purely sentimental.

    Ok, using pics of other 1 centavos of that type, I think I was able to find the date & mintmark.

    It looks like a common date 1887-M in AG-3.

    How much would that be worth?

    It's in such poor shape it's worth close to nothing.
