    I have an obscure Peru coin question.

    peru ayacucho 1882 5 pesetas:

    Was this coin minted in the province of Ayacucho, or Lima, or elsewhere ?
    If it was minted in Ayacucho, does anyone have the street address
    of where the mint was previously located? I am assuming it was somewhere
    in Huamanga, possibly a municipal building?

    Similarly, anyone have the address of the previous Cuzco mint ?

    I have visited the Casa de Moneda in Lima, which was interesting,
    and would like to take some photos/video of the Ayacucho and Cuzco mint,
    when/if I make it there in the future, and can find the address.

    I'll be very surprised if anyone actually know this information... :)
    Thanks, M.

    Yes it is from the Ayacucho mint. You can find addresses and phone numbers for many of the mints of the world - Right Here The ones you are asking about are not there, but that is the best listing I know of for them.

    Your best bet to locate the info you want may be to contact the Casa De Moneda in Peru and ask them.
