This 1781-MO FF Mexico Silver 1/2 Real, issued as New Spain (Mexico) under the reign of Charles III (1759–1788), is a remarkable 90% silver coin from the Mexico City Mint, identified by the "MO" mark.

Featuring the assayers Cayetano Francisco Garcia and Jeronimo Fernandez, this coin was struck during the American Revolutionary War, a period when Spanish-American silver coins played a crucial role in supporting colonial efforts against Britain.

The obverse depicts the right-facing armored bust of Charles III with the Latin legend CAROLUS III DEI GRATIA and the date 1781 and the reverse features the Crowned Spanish shield between the Pillars of Hercules with PLUS ULTRA banners.
