    I apologize if there already is a thread on this topic. I searched the World Coin forum using Mexico but came up blank for a dedicated thread.

    So because I live so close to Mexico and have been lucky enough to pick up some nice examples at reasonable prices, I thought I would share. Please feel free to add yours as well.

    First up is a toned 1940 20 centavos. I have posted this one before but just took new pictures. Better but a work in progress on my set up. Polish_20200628_181452287.jpg

    I have some, here's one of my favorites! Mintage was only 2000 it's a 1993 Brasero Efigie Coin aka: the God of Rain Coin. This isn't the Proof but to me it's just as good! :D

    Here's an 8 Reales from 1883 M.H., it's a beauty! Has some wear on both sides but it's really a clean example! :D

    Here's my only Un Peso 1926, nice silver coin! Actually, I may have another one but if I do it's not as nice as this one! :happy:

    Ah, a bada$$ Zapata time period 10 Centavos, nice one Razz! :smuggrin: Here's a plain Jane 1983 Silver Libertad and the second one is a 1993 Piedra De Los Soles Proof Coin with the Aztec Calendar and the tiny tongue face man in the center! :D

    Just as an fyi the two silver 1993's up there are listed in the for sale forum, if anyone is interested! :cigar: Here's my only gold 2009 Libertad I bought last year, the slab has scratches on it but even as a PF68 it's a beauty! Mexican gold coins have gotten really pricey. Ten years ago, it wasn't like that at all and not too many people wanted Mexican gold, now they can't get enough! :D

    I have a lovely 1932 1 Peso. i was so excited I tore it out of the 2x2 and left a nasty staple scratch on the obverse. Wow.
