<p>[QUOTE="xlrcable, post: 2466528, member: 41288"]Papasolar, it's already been pointed out that the exchange rate value of the coins isn't relevant here, but it may still be worth mentioning that Mexican currency dated prior to 1992 is denominated in an old peso that was worth 1/1000 of the current peso. That's why it's no longer valid. If you didn't know that, you might think a 1000 peso coin from 1988 was quite a chunk of change; in fact it was equal to about 40 cents US.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
