<p>[QUOTE=&quot;jfransch, post: 1227592, member: 31857&quot;]You have an 1877 8 reales coin from Mexico (8R). Your coin was minted at the Mexico CIty mint, the &quot;M&quot; with the small &quot;o&quot; above it is the mintmark. Assayer initials &quot;M H&quot;, mint official in charge of quality of the silver. The 10Ds, 20Gs is the silver purity, it is read as 10 dineros, 20 granos. Pure silver is 12 dineros and there are 24 granos in a dinero so you have 10 and 20/24 divided by 12 = .9027 which is the silver fineness of Mexican Republic coins.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
