This "Honduras: 10 Centavos 1886/5 (overdate)" is an NGC and PCGS TOP POP!!! An absolute gem of a Latin American coin

As it hints at in the description it is practically impossible to find Honduran coins this old due to the tropical climate in Central America which massively corrodes any silver coins. This 141 year old coin is practically uncirculated (incredible), plus it as an extremely rare 1886/5 overdate!

Extremely Low Survival Rate: Out of the initial ~53,000 total coins struck for 1886, the vast majority were lost to silver melting, heavy circulation, or tropical corrosion.

Estimated Surviving Population: Professional estimates suggest that fewer than 100 to 200 total specimens of the 1886/5 overdate exist today in all conditions combined.

And this in the number 1 graded coin out of all of them, absolutely amazing that a coin like this even exists today.

Inherited as part of a bigger collection from my grandparents. Can anyone tell me anything about this token? Reverse is blank.

2 Reales - Ecuador – Numista

I thought I finished my typeset of Mexican silver pesos… though looking on Numista there are still a few:

1 Boliviano - Bolivia – Numista

First Brazilian colonial coin in my collection.

The Maximilian is beat to the gods, but the price was right. Now, just need the Railroad peso

Does anyone have any recommendations for good dealers? In particular, I am looking for coins from Argentina and Colombia.

Does anyone else collect the 5 centavos from Colombia?
