Are these gold pesos genuine?

    I bought these for less than spot, at least from what info I could gather about these coins. These are not my pics but I will pick them up this weekend hopefully, since my mom is in town from Bolivia. Do they look OK from what you can see?

    I would say that is probably real. Remember that coin is more than likely a restrike from the mint in Mexico City. 2/2.5/5 peso commonly restruck but the gold content should be the same. Traci :eek:

    Thanks Traci, from what I gathered, the first coin was .05 oz and the second was a bit over .1 oz. I figured at spot I couldn't be to far off in price.
