    I am not that knowledgable about Mexican coins. Does anyone see anything of value here (perhaps silver) I know the dates range from 1944-1980 and it seems to have everything inbetween.

    I know the upclose pic isnt worth much but you can see some other coins in the background

    I see no silver coins, all are copper nickel or copper. most of what I can see are worth a few cents

    Yeah I am starting to get that feeling too lol. The best I have spotted so far is a few that sell on ebay for 2 bucks each.

    Look and see if you have a diez peso from 1975 or 1974. Those are rarer dates and the 1975 in particular can fetch a lot. I've seen them go for $25. Otherwise I don't think you have anything special. Those are the only rare dates from what it looks like you have.

    You can get 5 pounds of mixed foreigns as low as $49.99. If you start going that route though, I'd suggest buying you a Krause catalog. you can find used copies pretty cheap, and the values aren't that exact, so previous year issues would work.

    If you decide to sell them on eBay you'll probably have to bundle them. I sold a bunch of my extra Mexican coins awhile back and I can tell you that most of them from this era won't sell if you list them by themselves.

    Yeah dosent look like I will be bothering with it. I was hoping their would be some hidden gems. But after getting a couple dates and types it seemed unlikely.

    Too bad there was no oldschool reales or something :D
