| Additional information |
The 1830 Progress patterns were struck as part of Mexico's post-independence effort to modernize its coinage away from the colonial pillar and portrait types still in circulation. The "Progreso" series explored machine-struck designs at a time when the Mexican Mint was evaluating the transition to more industrialized production methods — a shift that would not fully materialize nationally for another decade.
KM# Pn10 is among the rarest documented pattern issues of the early republic, with surviving examples numbering in the single digits.
