Fr-5 (unlisted date); KM-58. An EXTREMELY RARE type that is missing from most major collections, including Hammel, Norweb and Garrett. In fact, this date was totally unknown until a small group of 13 coins surfaced in the early 2000s, the group is believed to be an important Honduran woman's wedding dowry from the 1880s. When including the two known pieces dated 1889, there are a total of only 15 pieces known of the type.
