    I believe Cayon lists one.

    G. Calbeto lists a 1754/3 8 Reales with MM/F on pg 230-232. It's plated but photo quality is not good.

    I collect Ancients and early Independence Era Latin American.

    Thanks so much for posting! It totally answers my question as ngc doesn’t appear to have graded one yet

    Brad Yonaka has published two volumes on pillar die varieties but not the Mexico 8R. In both volumes, he has added and omitted varieties included or excluded by Gilboy. If he does so for the Mexico 8R, some might not be included. I mention this because Yonaka includes images for practically every variety he lists while Gilboy did not.
