    I liked these two coins and got them for reasonable prices. Whilst I don't think they command a high price I think the grades speak for themselves.
    I am hoping they slab very well at NGC.

    [​IMG]Saw this one on e-bay but it looks a little odd to me as no dragons teeth poking out under the cap. Both my coins have two tiny teeth below centre of cap designed to make it difficult for faking......but what do I know! Sorry about size of scan but can't post better on from e-bay. I read that they put dragons teeth on the coins from 1867 and the coin is an 1868....perhaps the Hermosillo Cap didn't get them.
