<p>[QUOTE=&quot;thous, post: 822212, member: 23694&quot;]Hi everyone,</p><p>I&#039;m not well versed in world coinage but I was looking through a bag of old world coins I&#039;ve had for a long time and found an 1843 Mexico City 8 Reales. Love the coin, but I looked it up in a reference book covering Spanish Colonial and early Mexican coins and the variety I have is not listed...The only assayer&#039;s initials shown for 1843 are M.M., while my coin is M.L. The book seemed to list the various assayers for any given year very thoroughly so I was surprised to not be able to find an M.L. for 1843. Does anyone know if this is a common assayer&#039;s mark for that year?</p><p>Thanks![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
