Any Mexico Variety Gurus (or anyone for that matter)? 1980/79 10 Centavos Perhaps???

This was in a "grab bag" of foreign coins I bought last year. Finally got a 1900+ Krause (Thanks Don) so am looking some of this up.

I pegged this as a KM #434.1 10 Centavos Variety I for sure, but I'm on the fence if it is a regular 1980 with some machine doubling or the 1980/79 variety. Looks like a slight misaligned die as well. Any opinions?







I realize a sub-$10 variety isn't all that exciting, but it's my first darkside variety (maybe) and thought it was cool.

Thanks,
Jeff

Looks like doubling, to me. Neat find!

Anyone else have an opinion - or better yet, a picture of a true 80/79?

In the loop on the 0, it almost looks like a faint diagional mark where the 9 from the 79 would have been.

Doubling, for sure. Mexican coins offer all kinds of die cracks and doubling and interesting varieties.
