Can anyone help me out with information on a gold 1945 Dos Y Medios Pesos coin? I am trying to catalog and get values for coins that my father collected, and have come across a few non-U.S coins, and this is one of them. Thanks for any help.
Yeah it is real a 2 1/2 peso gold piece, Mexico City mint has been restriking these and the 2 and 5 peso for awhile now. Its probally just worth its bullion value around $60. Traci
These are nice coins and they are recognized for their gold value which is well determined. I believe the Au content is 0.0670 troy ounce, which is 2.08 grams. It's about 1/15'th troy ounce pure gold. So when gold goes to $1500 an ounce, you've got $100. And that's a handy (not too large, not too small) amount IMO. I like them.
