<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 1749073, member: 19065&quot;]Bruce, the 5 Pesos &quot;Cuauhtemoc&quot; pieces are a really nice big coin. You can find them for decent prices in really stunning BU quality with nice luster, plus there are just a couple of years worth of them but they&#039;re not scarce. I most definitely recommend getting one and seeing what you think about it, in-hand. (1947-48 in silver, the design was simplified and reused later in clad coinage.)</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Since you are into counter-stamped coins, you may also keep your eyes peeled for Mexican coins with counter-stamps. The ones I&#039;ve seen carry decent premiums, too. In fact, I recently was outbid on <a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1921-Mexico-Silver-1-Peso-Essay-Office-Counterstamp-Nice-Foreign-Coin-Free-S-H-/360674468090?pt=US_World_Coins&amp;hash=item53f9dfa0fa" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/1921-Mexico-Silver-1-Peso-Essay-Office-Counterstamp-Nice-Foreign-Coin-Free-S-H-/360674468090?pt=US_World_Coins&amp;hash=item53f9dfa0fa" rel="nofollow">this one</a> on eBay as I underestimated the interest in the coin. I thought it was really interesting, a 1921 silver 1 Peso Mexican coin, &quot;assayed&quot; by the State of Nevada.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
