It appears as though I've discovered a new variety in the 1775 1 Real from Mexico City. A misspelling of the word “GRATIA” in the obverse legend as “GRTIA”. Would love to get this discovery labeled into the catalog.

Good morning,

 

I am looking for any other reference regarding the existence of this variety. At this point, this is the only instance of it.

 

I'll keep looking for a little longer. If you have any other reference, that would be great.

Thank you. 

 

Just like some users on that forum, I have my doubts on the authenticity of this variant. 

 

@thefinnishcollector , could you help with more details about your coin (dimensions, provenance, etc)?

 

I just want to make sure that we add a legitimate new entry to a well-known coin.

 

Thank you so much for you patience.

Thank you @Jasanche for your reply,

 

I’ve taken some measurements and the coin comes out to 21 mm and 3.3 grams (if this weight isn't specific enough I can take it to a jeweler and use their scale if  necessary). 
 

Here is a photo of the edge of at all useful: 

 

As far as the provenance goes: I don’t have much beyond where I purchased it. Just a local coin/jewelry store in NE Ohio, Ohio Estates Coin and Jewelry. 

 

Thank you for your time, 

 

Evan

Good evening,

 

I have approved the new entry. Thank you for your patience.

 

John
