Hello, there was an error on the Cal#43, 1885*1887 coin, as the assayer's initials should have been MPM instead of MSM of the Cal#42 1885*1887 coin.
Now this mistake has been fixed:
Cal#42: 1885 MSM *1887
Cal#43: 1885 MPM *1887
As a curious fact, the 1885*1886 and 1885*1887 coins were all minted during the reign of Alfonso XIII.
Thank you for pointing out this error.
