<p>[QUOTE=&quot;The_Cave_Troll, post: 26865, member: 1674&quot;]In Mexico this symbol: $&nbsp;&nbsp; means peso, not dollar.&nbsp; Additionally, since 1988 Mexico has devalued its currency.&nbsp; What that means is that that 100 peso coin from 1988 now has a Mexican face value of 0.1 pesos, or 10 centavos.&nbsp; At the current exchange rate that makes it worth about 1 US cent, if you can find anyone to exchange it.&nbsp; The good news is that following the devaluing of its currency Mexico put a limit on how much longer the old pesos would be legal currency and that has expired meaning that the coin is no longer legal and is no longer circulating.&nbsp; This means that it is much less common than it was 15 years ago.&nbsp; Still, Pennycase is right that it has no real value unless it is really beautifully uncirculated.</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>CD[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
