1991 Hawaiian Silver 1/10 Ounce - X#MB76

Coin Details

Description

The 1991 Hawaiian Mint 1/10 ounce silver piece, Krause X#MB76, is a companion issue to the X#MB75, representing a different design type within the 1991 fractional silver program. The Krause catalog assigns distinct MB numbers to each design, and the MB76 features a different motif from its sibling issue while maintaining the same 1/10 troy ounce silver content. Hawaiian Mint fractional silver pieces from this period form a collectible series that has attracted increasing interest as awareness of Hawaiian numismatic material grows beyond the traditional focus on the 1883 Kingdom coinage. The variety of designs used across the MB series provides collectors with numerous design types to pursue. These 1/10 ounce pieces also served as an important introduction to Hawaiian numismatics for many collectors, particularly tourists visiting the islands who purchased small silver pieces as mementos of their trips. The affordable price point and attractive Hawaiian-themed designs made them popular souvenir items that often sparked broader interest in Hawaiian coin collecting.

Rarity Notes
