Silver issue

Obverse Gaucho, head facing right, date. Rev. value in wreath, memorial legend. Very light trace of handling keeps this solid coin from being full BU. Strong features with average marks, including a very light scratch on Gaucho’s face. Strong luster and eye appeal for an AU example. Coin contains 12.5000 g., .900 SILVER, .3617 oz. ASW. Nice coin for the price. (View image for more detail.)
