No pic at this time. I'm at work. I am trying to find the value or rarity of a 1878 Republic of Argentina one centavo coin. I've yet to find anything about this coin that is helpful. Is it rare and collectable?

Thanks for any info!

You mean the essai pattern? I've seen UNCs for 250-450

I wonder how it got to be in this condition.

I've once seen a French essai in circulated condition.

It's a low VF at best, but still worth up to $100 in a retail situation. I would not expect that much if it were auctioned from a low starting bid.

20 years ago there was none of that essai in the local market, it was just a museum piece, I dont know why during this latest years every collector here has at least one of them, yet they are expensive coins here in Argentina. Personaly I see something rare about the actual relative abundance in the dealers offers.
