<p>[QUOTE=&quot;sakata, post: 2998117, member: 23778&quot;]Restrike just mean it was minted later than the date on the coin.&nbsp; The gold content is the same so its bullion value is basically a small amount over spot.&nbsp; But because the 2 peso and 2.5 peso are affordable they command a premium. I have quite a few of each.&nbsp; Austria coins of 1915 (or 1916, I forget which) are also restrikes.&nbsp; A restrike is identical to the original except that it is not original.&nbsp; Another example is that almost all Maria Theresa thalers are silver restrikes, but they still demand a premium over spot so I acquire them whenever I can.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
