1892-Do JP 8 Reales Mexico MS61 PCGS, Only Mint State Example. This 1892-Do JP 8 Reales was struck at the Durango mint under assayer José Miguel Palma (who served two terms, 1880–1882) and 1890–1892; there was also a J. Miguel Palma who served one year, 1877, and “signed” the dies with the three-letter acronym JMP). Another assayer, Norberto Dominguez, “signed” the Durango dies ND starting in this year through 1895, and such coins are slightly rarer, according to the reference. This piece seems rather severely undergraded by PCGS, but even so, it is the sole Mint State example of this date, mint and assayer at PCGS (#700584); there are also two in AU55 and one in AU58 (8/2021).
